Toure left out of squad for Champions League qualifierIvorian midfielder left at home as City travel to Romania

Yaya Toure has been left out of City's travelling party for the Champions League qualifier away at Steaua Bucharest. The Ivorian also failed to make the matchday squad for City's opening game of the season against Sunderland, with Pep Guardiola sending out a strong message that Toure doesn't feature in his plans.

Joe Hart, who was replaced by Willy Caballero against the Black Cats, does travel although his future also appears unceratin, with City strongly linked with Barcelon's Claudio Bravo.

Youngsters Angus Gunn, Tosin Adarabioyo and Aneglino are included as Guardiola shapes his squad for the forthcoming season.

Squad in full:

Hart, Caballero, Gunn, Sagna, Zabaleta, Otamendi, Stones, Adarabioyo, Kolarov, Clichy, Angelino, Fernando, Fernandinho, Delph, Nolito, Silva, Navas, De Bruyne, Sterling, Iheanacho, Aguero
