"After four-and-a-half years, filled with your chants for me and my love for you, the time has come to say goodbye," the 29-year-old said in a letter, posted on his official Twitter handle.

"I have spent some of the best moments of my career at Manchester City, moments that I will never forget.

"Thank you for everything."

A crowd favourite at City, Dzeko, scored 72 goals in 117 starts and won five trophies for the club but struggled to break into the starting line-up last season.

"I will continue to be a big fan of Manchester City, to whom I wish all the best and many more trophies and happiness in the future." he added.
