England No. 1 Joe Hart looks set to depart Manchester City before the summer transfer window swings shut on Aug. 31, according Sky Sports' Paul Vinnell.
As City's undisputed first-choice shot-stopper for six seasons, Hart's exit would mark the highest-profile snub by new manager Pep Guardiola.
The news comes amid reports of a potentially pricey swoop for Barcelona's 33-year-old goalkeeper Claudio Bravo.

Willy Caballero was selected ahead of Hart for City's season-opening 2-1 defeat of Sunderland on Saturday, with many pundits suggesting it was due to Guardiola's preference for a net-minder that's comfortable with the ball at his feet. It was something the Spanish gaffer became accustomed to at Barcelona, and most recently through his use of the pioneering Manuel Neuer at Bayern Munich.
Bravo would satisfy this want, but Guardiola may have to wait to broker a deal until Marc-Andre ter Stegen - a name City was linked with before the summer - has returned to full fitness in Catalonia.
Vinnell's colleague Vinny O'Connor speculates that Everton - boosted by the finances of new majority shareholder Farhad Moshiri - could be tempted by Hart's availability. He would presumably vault ahead of Maarten Stekelenburg in Ronald Koeman's first XI, despite the Dutchman only recently joining from Fulham.
There is also apparent interest from Spain, but the Shrewsbury Town youth product is understood to prefer a stay in his homeland.
Hart, 29, moved to Manchester City in 2006 following long-term scouting by then-manager Stuart Pearce and goalkeeping coach Tim Flowers, and won a regular spot between the sticks for England after the 2010 World Cup.
