French side Gael Clichy (31) and Bacary Sagna (34), Spanish winger Jesus Navas (31) and Argentine goalkeeper Willy Caballero (35) will leave Manchester City, confirmed "City" on Thursday. Clichy, who joined the Citizens in 2011 from Arsenal, won two championships in 2012 and 2014, as well as two League Cups with Manchester City.
"Winning four major trophies and helping the club establish itself as one of the best in England has been an incredible adventure, which I am proud to have taken part in. It's great to see where the club is today 'Hui,' commented the French international at the 20 selections on the club's website.Sagna, who had been European champion with France in June, had joined Manchester in 2014 after seven seasons at Arsenal.
Little used by Pep Guardiola this season and not spared by the physical mop up, the right side has been established only 17 times this season in the Premier League.
Didier Deschamps did not appeal to him for the next matches of the France team in June against Paraguay, Sweden, and England.
Sacred world champion in 2010 and European champion in 2012 with Spain, Navas had joined the North of England in 2013 from Seville.
In spite of the recruitment of Chilean Claudio Bravo by Pep Guardiola, Caballero, who arrived at "City" in 2014 from Malaga, had managed to establish himself as a holder, although his coach did not deny it.
After the official departure of Pablo Zabaleta last week, Guardiola still has to settle the case of the Ivorian Yaya Touré, also at the end of the contract in June.
