The incredible XI of players sold by Manchester City

Wing-backs - Kieran Trippier (Tottenham Hotspur) and Aleksandar Kolarov (AS Roma)

Trippier never played for the Man City senior team

It’s funny that a former Manchester City player is currently Tottenham’s first choice right-back and a former Tottenham player is Manchester City’s first-choice right-back.

Trippier came through the Man City academy but never made an appearance for the senior side and spent his final years at the club on loan with Barnsley and Burnley before joining the latter permanently in 2012.

The 28-year-old found success with Burnley before moving to Spurs and becoming a regular for England.

Kolarov won two league titles with Man City

Aleksandar Kolarov joined Manchester City in 2010 and spent seven seasons at the club playing 247 games and scoring 21 goals. Although he divided opinion, he was part of a golden era and he won six trophies in his time at the club before joining AS Roma.

Kolarov has impressed upon his return to the Serie A and is a default starter for Roma. He has 5 goals and 12 assists in 54 games across all competitions for his current club.

Honourable mentions - Pablo Zabaleta (West Ham), Bacary Sagna (Montreal Impact), Pablo Maffeo (Stuttgart), Micah Richards (Aston Villa) and Gael Clichy (İstanbul Başakşehir)
