City have confirmed their first exit of the January transfer window as goalkeeper Zack Steffen has left the Etihad on a permanent deal.
Steffen, 28, signed for City in 2019, and made 21 appearances for Pep Guardiola in between loan spells at Fortuna Dusseldorf and Middlesbrough. He underwent surgery in the summer which meant he was unable to leave the club on loan for the first half of the season, and has now completed a return to his native USA.

He had hoped to be included in the US's World Cup squad in 2022, but missed the cut while on loan at Boro, with his last international appearance coming in March 2022.
