From ground-sharing and ownership battles to a return to the Premier League, the Sky Blues’ rise reflects the spirit of the city itself, writes DAVID CONWAY
MANCHESTER CITY’S Fernandinho announced today that he will not continue playing for the club after the end of this season and that he instead plans to return to his home country.
Speaking in the club’s pre-match press conference ahead of Wednesday’s Champions League tie with Atletico Madrid, he gave a simple response when asked if he would extend his contract: “I don’t think so.”
The Brazilian midfielder noted his lack of game time as a key reason for leaving the club, with him having only had 11 starts this season.
