Manchester City are ready to offload Fabian Delph this summer and they want between £12million and £15million for him, according to a Daily Telegraph report.

The newspaper claims West Brom and Stoke City have both already made enquiries over the 27-year-old midfielder’s availability, but City chiefs are waiting for a significant offer before they agree to sell.

Delph is under contract at the Etihad until 2020 and his club are against the idea of a loan move and want him off their books this summer.

Delph has struggled with injuries since his £10million move from Aston Villa in the summer of 2015, and has played just 40 league and cup games for City since then.

The central midfielder only made 13 appearances in all competitions last term, as a groin problem ravaged his campaign.

He has been capped by England on nine occasions, but he has not featured since the 2-0 friendly defeat to Spain in November 2015.

City manager Pep Guardiola is looking to offload some deadweight this summer and Willy Caballero, Jesus Navas, Gael Clichy and Bacary Sagna are set to leave the club following the expiration of their contracts.

Meanwhile,  Joe Hart, Wilfried Bony, Eliaquim Mangala, Samir Nasri and Delph are all expected to leave too, as Guardiola rebuilds his squad ahead of the 2017/18 campaign.
