Goalkeeper Richard Wright has agreed a one-year contract extension with Manchester City.

The 35-year-old signed from Preston last year, but did not make a first-team appearance during Roberto Mancini's final season.

Although he did feature during City's post-season tour, the experienced shot-stopper is expected to be Manuel Pellegrini club's third-choice behind Joe Hart and Costel Pantilimon.

Wright began his career at Ipswich 18 years ago and went on to make over 230 first-team appearances before joining Arsenal in 2001.
