Napoli offer Clichy Man City escape route
The Frenchman has played 839 minutes spread in 12 appearances in all competitions so far this season as Pep Guardiola usually plays former Lazio defender Kolarov as left-back.
With Napoli that will lose Faouzi Ghoulam for one month due to the African cup of nations, the Serie A side could offer the Man City defender an escape from Manchester City and some more game time, at least until Ghoulam returns from the tournament.
Clichy would leave Manchester City either on loan or on a permanent deal and one more proof of the defender’s departure from the Etihad Stadium is the reported imminent arrival of Grimaldo at Manchester City.
The U-21 Spain International is said to be close to completing a € 45 million move in January.
