JOE HART has flown out with Manchester City on their pre-season tour of the United States today.
The City goalkeeper wants to quit the Etihad after boss Pep Guardiola made it clear he was not in his first-team plans.
The 31-year-old stopper has been training with City over the last week, despite being shoved towards the exit door.
But England ace Hart is heading to the US, where City will face Borussia Dortmund, Liverpool and Bayern Munich.
An Etihad source said: “Joe is coming with the rest of the squad to North America, just as planned.
“Pep and the other coaches have been great with him during training and made him feel more than welcome.
“He has been told by the powers that be that something will be sorted as soon as possible and he won’t be messed around.”
Hart is struggling to find a new club at present, with City receiving no offers for him during this transfer window.

He has just one-year left on his £110,000-a-week deal, and the club are keen to get his wages off the books.
Meanwhile, Leroy Sane is also flying out to the US on their private plane from Manchester Airport.
