After spending the last four years on loan, Callum Doyle is available on a permanent deal this summer. The 21-year-old has two years left on his deal, but he and City have agreed that it is now time for him to find a place to settle with no route to the first team.
He has played more than 100 games in the second tier at Sunderland, Coventry City, Leicester City and Norwich City. City will be looking for up to £10m after the big sales of fellow centre-backs Taylor Harwood-Bellis and Shea Charles to Southampton in recent years.
Bundesliga club Hoffenheim had a bid rejected earlier in the window, and it could now be that a top-end Championship side takes Doyle on loan again with an option or obligation to buy.
