The 25-year-old full-back who joined the Gunners from French club Cannes in 2003, is out of the contract at a Emirates Stadium next summer and he has reportedly told Arsenal he wanted to leave last month, and had been linked with Liverpool and Roma.
The City are rivals for his signature, with the deal reportedly worth £7m and the arsenal boss Arsene Wenger faces an anxious time with playmaker Cesc Fabregas again being linked with Barcelona and the Midfielder Sami Nasri has also been tipped to leave the club, and is thought to be a target for both City and Manchester United.
The Gunners, who return for pre-season training this week ahead of a tour of Malaysia and China, have been strongly linked with a move for Bolton defender Gary Cahill and Wenger recently claimed that it will be late into pre-season before there is significant movement in the transfer market and the We are in a waiting period, everybody is waiting, said the Arsenal boss in an interview with Alsace TV.
International career for Gael Clichy has earned caps with all of France's youth teams for which he was eligible and he was a late participant at under 15 level under coach Luc Rabat and he made his youth international debut on 13 March 2001 in a 3–0 friendly win over Italy.
Clichy appeared in 10 matches as France attempted to qualify for the 2002 UEFA European Under 17 Football Championship and he made his debut with the team on 19 September 2001 in its opening league match of the season for a 1–0 win over Yugoslavia for a qualifying for the UEFA-sanctioned tournament.
