Having forked out more that £160m this summer, Pep Guardiola spent Deadline Day taking an axe to his squad and the result was that by late on Wednesday night Joe Hart, Samir Nasri, Wilfried Bony and Eliaquim Mangala had all left the Etihad.

Bony has joined Stoke City on loan, putting an end - temporarily, at least - to his Sky Blues nightmare, says the Manchester Evening News. Since arriving at the club in a £28m move from Swansea in January 2015, the Ivorian frontman has made just 15 league starts and has yet to feature under new boss Guardiola.
