“I’ve not been entertained by anybody or spoken to anybody.”
City’s creator-in-chief however hinted that he is expecting to hold talks with the club as he is now into the final year of his contract at the Etihad.
“Once the season goes on, I’m sure there will be conversations to be had with City,” he said.
“I just want to feel good, play good football and this will come in the upcoming months. I don’t really feel the rush for the moment.”
