City accepted an undisclosed fee for the Spain defender after splashing out £77m for Croatia’s defender, Josko Gvardiol, 21.
City boast of an array of top defenders and the arrival of Gvardiol means Laporte is surplus to requirement.
Laporte, 29, made 43 starts during the 2021-22 season for the treble winners with Guardiola preferring the duo of Manuel Akanji and Nathan Ake more often, which limited Laporte’s appearances.
