Manchester City forward Mahamadou Sangaré (19) is being linked with a summer exit, as per a report from Fabrizio Romano.

Sangaré joined Manchester City last summer. The striker made the choice to join the Premier League side over the possibility of signing a first professional contract at formative club Paris Saint-Germain. In his debut season at Manchester City, he failed to make a first-team appearance. However, for the academy side, he did make 30 appearances, scoring 15 goals, including a hat-trick in a UEFA Youth League game against AS Monaco.

It was reported back in November that the France U19 international was keen on an exit from Manchester City in the winter transfer window in order to further his development. Ultimately, he remained, but a move this summer now looks likely.

As per Romano, a departure is expected amid interest from clubs in Ligue 1 and the Bundesliga. Manchester City have already received several approaches.
