Joe Hart has been sidelined at Manchester City ever since Pep Guardiola took charge of the club and there seems to be no way back for him. He has already spent his time on loan in the last two seasons. However, his performances have been below par and it seems likely that he is close to an exit from Manchester City.
The 31-year-old is part of the Citizens squad in the preseason games but come the new season, Ederson will take the mantle of the no. 1 option. Hart recently was quoted as saying,”I’m experienced, I’ve played at the highest level for a long time, and done a lot of things in the game. I need to be an important player at that club and I think that can only happen with a permanent move.”
The player wants to permanently move away from the club as at City he will find it tough to even be the second choice option. He indicated that he doesn’t mind moving away from England. Hart said, ”I love all the leagues. I’ve shown that. I went out to Serie A and I loved Serie A. Leagues are there to be played in, There’s no league that I’d say no to. I’m open, but I want to do what’s right for me at this point of my career and I want to give all of myself to the right cause.”
We look at three possible destinations which the English custodian can go to.
The Cherries have lost the services of Adam Federici and Ryan Allsop which leaves the club with one viable goalkeeping option in Asmir Begovic. It is likely that he will have to fight for a place to be the first choice starter, however, Eddie Howe shouldn’t mind having an experienced player like Hart at his disposal.
Torino
Maybe a permanent move to the Italian outfit this time will be a good option for the English custodian. He did decently in Serie A and as a result, was picked up by West Ham United on loan where he had a dismal spell. Torino fans gave him a good reception and maybe a move to Italy will do the fallen star a world of good.

Both Simon Mignolet and Loris Karius have been underperforming at the club and both of the custodians have been linked with a move away from Anfield. Maybe Hart can be a good deputy to Alisson Becker in the upcoming season.
