Caicedo Set For City Exit

Manchester City striker Felipe Caicedo is set to leave the club after the arrival of Roque Santa Cruz and the impending transfer of Carlos Tevez from Manchester United. Wigan, West Ham and Sporting Lisbon have all been linked with a move for the Ecuadorean.

Despite Caicedo managing nine goals in 14 starts last season, the player is still set for the Eastlands exit door this summer. His agent Saif Rubie has admitted that there is big interest in the player.

“There is a huge amount of interest in Felipe across the world,” Rubie told skysports.com.

“There are offers on the table and we will look at all the scenarios when Felipe returns from holiday in Ecuador.

“At this point of his career Felipe wants to be playing regularly and he did very well when he was given the opportunity last season.

“Everyone knows Sporting Lisbon are ready to take Felipe as are other clubs in the Premier League and elsewhere in Europe and we will look at all options open to us before a decision.

“If a suitable offer arrives we will look at it, but if Manchester City want to keep him and offer Felipe a new deal he would consider that also.

“We will sit down and try and resolve Felipe’s future very soon.”
