Harry Redknapp is keen to bolster his defence as fitness worries continue to surround the future of influential captain Ledley King, while Jonathan Woodgate is still plagued by a long-term groin problem and is unlikely to be named in the final 25-man squad.
Lescott appears to be out of favour after Roberto Mancini opted to start with Kolo Toure and Vincent Kompany at the heart of the City defence.
But despite having to contend with a place on the substitutes bench, Lescott was denied the chance to move down to London as City were not keen for him to join a Champions League rival.
