4 players Manchester City should sell this summer

#1 Patrick Roberts

Patrick Roberts.

Patrick Roberts has played just once for Man City in the three years he's been with them. He was signed from Fulham in 2015 for £6.5m and was considered a great youth prospect for City to develop. But it seems like the Cityzens are aiming to sell on the youngster for profit as soon as they can, because the 21-year-old is just not up to par with the rest of the City squad.

Roberts has spent the last three seasons on loan at Celtic, where his performances have been widely praised. He has racked up a total of 78 appearances both in the Scottish Premiership and the League cup, scoring 18 goals and providing 26 assists.

Brendan Rodgers was reportedly trying to sign the City forward on a permanent deal in January, but the asking price was far too high. Celtic might try again this summer to get a deal done but will need to match City's new valuation of £10m for the 21-year-old.

Where might Patrick Roberts go?

Despite being heavily linked with Celtic, it looks like Leicester City is where Roberts is headed this summer. The Daily Mirror reports that the England Under-20 will indeed be playing at the King Power Stadium next season after a £10m deal was agreed earlier this month.

Of course, this is still speculation at this point, but Roberts had to this to say when asked about his future:

"(Playing in the Premier League) is the main aim. Being an English player and having come through the system in the Premier League, (the ambition) is to play for the top club in the Premier League.

"I'm at one now with Manchester City and they're doing well but you've got to look at yourself, and what's best for you, and try to pick the best option possible."
