Deadline Day: Manchester City trio leave on loan<\/h3>\n

Hart joins Torino on loan<\/h3>\n

England goalkeeper Joe Hart has joined Serie A club Torino after eight years of being Manchester City’s first-choice goalkeeper. The move comes after Manchester City signed Claudio Bravo<\/strong> from Barcelona<\/strong> to replace Hart as City’s number one. The 29-year-old played 348 games for the Manchester club, winning two league titles. The goalkeeper also won an FA Cup<\/strong> and two League Cups<\/strong> with City. Speaking on the move, Hart told Torino\u2019s website: <\/a>\u201cTorino\u2019s offer came at the right moment for me, in the right manner, and I\u2019m very excited to test myself in an important and beautiful league such as Serie A.” The goalkeeper also described the move as a ‘turning-point’ in his career.<\/p>\n

Nasri joins Sevilla on season-long loan<\/h3>\n

Manchester City midfielder Samir Nasri has joined La Liga side Sevilla on a season-long loan. The 29-year-old has left after 171 appearances in five seasons for the Manchester club after joining from Arsenal in 2011.\u00a0The midfielder\u00a0initially trained alone when Pep Guardiola<\/strong> took over due to problems with his weight<\/a>. However, the French<\/strong> international has the chance to revive his career at the current Europa League<\/strong> holders. Nasri won five trophies at Manchester City including two Premier League<\/strong> titles. The 29-year-old posted on Twitter<\/a> “@<\/s>ManCity<\/b><\/a> it’s been a pleassure thanks to everyone in the club and the fans for the 5 amazing years and wish you best of luck for the season.”<\/p>\n

Wilfried Bony joins Stoke on loan<\/h3>\n

Ivory Coast striker Wilfried Bony has joined Stoke City on loan. The 27-year-old made just fifteen starts\u00a0in over 18 months at City. Bony scored 35 goals in 70 games for Swansea<\/strong> before he joined Manchester City for 28 million in January 2015. West Ham<\/strong> manager Slaven Bilic<\/strong> was said to be interested in the striker earlier in the week. The Potters<\/strong> have already signed Derby<\/strong> goalkeeper Lee Grant<\/strong> and are in talks with Porto<\/strong> defender Bruno Martins Indi<\/strong>. Stoke\u00a0manager Mark Hughes.<\/a> “Bringing Wilfried in was a no-brainer for us, he has power, speed and very good physical attributes.” Bony posted on his twitter\u00a0<\/a>\u00a0“Thank You to all the MCFC fans for the support & hello to @<\/s>stokecity<\/b><\/a> fans I look forward to a great season together”<\/p>\n
