:Headline: Where are Manchester City's 2012 title winners now?:
Sergio Aguero will be the last player in that side to leave the club.
Sports Mole

Sergio Aguero, who is to leave Manchester City at the end of the season, has scored a record 257 goals for the club – one of which will be remembered more than all the others.

That was his dramatic last-gasp winner against QPR that clinched the Premier League title in the final game of the season in 2012.

Here, the PA news agency looks at what happened to the team from that day.

Joe Hart

Won another title in 2014 but fell out of favour under Pep Guardiola. Now at Tottenham after spells with Torino, West Ham and Burnley.

Pablo Zabaleta

Argentinian defender Pablo Zabaleta was a firm City fans' favourite (Martin Rickett/PA)

Became one of the club's most reliable players until moving on in 2017. Retired last year after three seasons with West Ham.

Vincent Kompany

Joleon Lescott

Gael Clichy

French left-back Gael Clichy now plays in Switzerland (Simon Cooper/PA)

Released in 2017. Now playing for Swiss side Servette after three years in Turkey with Istanbul Baskasheir.

Samir Nasri

Joined Sevilla on loan in 2016 and later moved to Antalyaspor but served a doping ban before trying to reignite his career with West Ham and Anderlecht.

Gareth Barry

Yaya Toure

Yaya Toure was outstanding when City won the title again in 2014 (Martin Rickett/PA)

David Silva

Won three more titles before leaving the club after 10 years' service at the end of last season. Now playing at Real Sociedad.

Carlos Tevez

Carlos Tevez's eventful time at City ended in 2013 (Mike Egerton/PA)

The title win capped an extraordinary season which had seen the Argentinian suspended and spend time on unauthorised leave after a dispute with manager Roberto Mancini. Joined Juventus in 2013 before spells with Boca Juniors and Shanghai Shenhua.

Sergio Aguero

City's all-time record scorer will hope to add to his tally of 257 goals before leaving the club (Tim Goode/PA)

Became City's record goalscorer when he passed Eric Brook's 177 in 2017. Has also won three more titles but his final season at the club has been ravaged by injury and illness.

Went to AC Milan in 2013 before an ill-fated spell at Liverpool. Has since played for Nice, Marseille and Brescia and is now with Serie B club Monza.
