Pep Guardiola 'will let Manchester City goalkeeper Arijanet Muric leave on loan' amid Nottingham Forest rumours

Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola will let Arijanet Muric leave the club on loan this summer, according to the Sun.

The 20-year-old was between the sticks for Kosovo on Monday night when Martin O'Neill and Nottingham Forest 's head goalkeeping coach Seamus McDonagh were spotted watching on from the stands in Bulgaria .

After City shot-stopper Claudio Bravo found himself sidelined through injury early last season, Muric was recalled from his loan spell with Dutch side NAC Breda and installed as understudy to first-choice Ederson.

And the Swiss-born starlet went on to become to feature five times for the Premier League winners in their successful EFL Cup run, saving the decisive penalty in a shoot-out at Leicester City's King Power stadium along the way.

But now he will be allowed to leave the club on yet another loan spell in a move that Guardiola hopes will help strengthen the young international's first-team experience.

If speculation is to be believed, the Reds are in the market for a goalkeeper this summer.

During the 2018/19 season, City Ground regular Costel Pantilimon played more minutes than any other player in Garibaldi, keeping an impressive 15 league clean sheets along the way.

The Reds have also been linked with moves for ex-Aston Villa 'keeper Benjamin Siegrist and former Premier League winner Asmir Begovic .
