that Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola has been given the green light to sign a new left back when the transfer window reopens next month.
Any potential new addition in that position could spell the end of Gael Clichy’s time with the Citizens, with the France international falling out of favour under the former Barcelona boss.
The thirty-one year old has played in less than half of his sides Premier League games so far this season and also made just fourteen appearances as they finished fourth last term.
Since signing from Arsenal in the summer of 2011, he has racked up one hundred and seventy-nine outings in all competitions with his one and only goal for City coming in a 3-0 win at Southampton two years ago.
He was part of the squads that won the Premier League in 2012 and again two years later while his first title came with the Gunners as a teenager in 2004.
