Manchester City defender Gael Clichy says that he will leave the club when his contract expires in the summer.

Defender Gael Clichy has revealed that he will be leaving Manchester City during the summer.

Since signing from Arsenal in 2011, Clichy has made a total of 203 appearances in all competitions but with his contract expiring this summer, a decision has been made for the left-back to depart the Etihad Stadium.

During a question and answer session with supporters, he acknowledged that he would be looking for a new challenge after June.

The 31-year-old - who has played 25 times in the Premier League this season - won two league titles and two League Cups during his time in the North-West.

A report has claimed that Crystal Palace manager Sam Allardyce has identified Clichy as a potential signing.
