I am happy at Man City – Bravo

Claudio Bravo has said he is happy to stay at Manchester City despite losing his place to Willy Caballero. The former Barcelona skipper also branded reports of his exit from the English club, ‘fake news’. And he is not moved by reports that coach Pep Guardiola wants to sign a new goalkeeper.
“The issue that I was not playing came out, many examples of fake news have come out. Things that, above all, have no information about them. Many things also come out from this country that are not true – that I have a psychologist, or an English teacher to have a faster adaptation to life in England.  It’s all false, that I’m looking for another place to play, because I want to leave, things that are not true. I’m happy in England and so is my family.” he said after Chile’s 1-0 defeat against Argentina on Saturday.
In other words, the Chilean is staying put in England until the powers that be decide otherwise.
