Adam Johnson reveals first-team frustration at Manchester City

Johnson reveals City frustration

Manchester City winger Adam Johnson has revealed that he will be seeking talks with manager Roberto Mancini to clarify his future at the club.

Johnson has grown increasingly frustrated with a lack of first-team football at the Etihad, and is the subject of a £10m bid from Sunderland, according to the Daily Star.

The 25-year-old said: "It's not true that there has been a bust-up.

"I haven't really spoken to him, but I will. In the next few weeks we'll find out what is happening.

I think that was part of why I missed out on the England squad in the summer, as I didn't play regularly enough."

Johnson played 90 minutes for his country on Wednesday as England beat Italy 2-1.
