Manchester City manager Manuel Pellegrini will reportedly wait to make a decision on the future of right-back Micah Richards.

The 25-year-old has struggled to force his way into the first team due to a number of injury woes, prompting reports on where his future lies.

According to the Manchester Evening News, Pellegrini will not offload nor offer Richards a new deal this summer as he plans to wait until the end of next season.

Richards, who has made 10 appearances for City this season, will come to the end of his current contract in 2015.
