Javi García will be sold to Zent St. Petersburg for a deal worth nearly £13 million.

The Spaniard’s transfer is for a fee of £12m plus a further £800,000 in add-ons, with García having fallen even further behind in the thinking of Manuel Pellegrini after the purchase of Fernando from Porto to strengthen his central midfield options.

With Yaya Touré and Fernandinho the established starters in the position and Eliaquim Mangala’s £32m arrival this week as a centerback, the prospects of García playing regularly are slim.
