Lescott's sticking with City

Joleon Lescott has ruled out any possibility of leaving Manchester City during this month's transfer window.

Lescott has fallen out of favour at City this season, although he did complete the full 90 minutes of the FA Cup third round victory over Watford at the Etihad Stadium. QPR, Aston Villa and Lescott's former club Everton have all been linked with a move for the 30-year-old England international.

However, a statement released on Lescott's behalf by the player's spokesman said: "Joleon Lescott has ruled out the possibility of any loan move during the January transfer window."
