Shay Given 5/4 to sign for Fulham
Following Roberto Mancini's comments that Shay Given is free to leave Eastlands, Sky Bet make Fulham the 5/4 favourites to sign the Irish International. It's understood that Given is unhappy after losing out on the number one jersey to Joe Hart and it's 2/1 for the 34-year-old to sign for Celtic and 4/1 Arsenal.
Will Given leave City?
Mancini also went on to say that he won't stand in the way of Robinho or Roque Santa Cruz leaving Eastlands, should the pair wish to leave.
Sky Bet make Besiktas the 2/1 favourites to sign Brazilian striker Robinho with Germany side Schalke 5/2 and Italian giants Inter Milan 4/1.
Santa Cruz has been linked with a move to join up with his former manager Mark Hughes at Craven Cottage. It's 9/4 for Fulham to sign the Paraguay international and 5/2 Marseille.
Sky Bet's Tim Reynolds said: "Given was instrumental for City last season so it's not surprising to see the 34-year-old wants regular first team football this season. After the Bellamy transfer, it will be interesting to see if Mancini allows the Irish international to join a Premier League club, should the player decide to leave."

Sky Bet refund stakes on Sariska
Midday won a controversial renewal of the Darley Yorkshire Oaks to earn a 16/1 quote with Sky Bet for the Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe at Longchamp in October.
However, her task was made much easier when 85/40 favourite Sariska gifted her over old rival a first success in four tries by refusing to race when the stalls opened under a shocked Jamie Spencer.
Sky Bet will be refunding all win and each-way singles on Michael Bell's filly, who had no previous history of showing such antics in her three seasons racing to date.
Matt Doyle of Sky Bet said: 'Sariska had only finished out of the frame once in her previous nine starts and the dual Oaks winner has never done anything like this before to tarnish her reputation.
'We feel it would be grossly unfair to penalise punters for her refusal to race and will be refunding all win and each-way single bets struck on Sariska in the Yorkshire Oaks.'

Manchester City and Liverpool well supported ahead of their Europa League matches
Ahead of tonight's Europa League action, Sky Bet have seen some solid support for both Manchester City and Liverpool to win their respective matches.
Manchester City travel to Romania to take on FC Timisoara in their play-off first-leg tie and Sky Bet can report that over 90% of the total bets on the match result are on the Citizens to come away with a victory (9/2 FC Timisoara and 5/2 Draw).
Liverpool take on Turkish outfit Trabzonspor at Anfield and are also being well supported to claim victory. The Reds are currently in just under 90% of the total bets on the match result (1/4 Liverpool 4/1 Draw and 14/1 Trabzonspor).
Not only have Liverpool been backed to win this evening they are fancied to win by a large margin with Hodgson's men to score four or more goals at 7/2 proving popular.
Sky Bet's Tim Reynolds said: "Everybody wants to see Manchester City and Liverpool both to qualify to keep the betting interest going but we could do with either FC Timisoara or Trabzonspor doing us a favour this evening in the first leg matches."

Rainbow 5/4 to Peak with Strensall sponsors
The Sky Bet Strensall Stakes at York on Friday sees the eagerly awaited Pattern race debut of Rainbow Peak, who has been installed a 5/4 favourite by the sponsors to land the Group 3 prize.
The Wolferton Handicap winner at Royal Ascot is pitched into Pattern company for the first time by Michael Jarvis after missing an intended Group 2 engagement in the Sky Bet York Stakes due to a setback.
Matt Doyle of Sky Bet said: 'Rainbow Peak's Group race debut is the highlight of the three races we sponsor at the Ebor meeting on Friday and we fear it is more than the prize-money we will be paying out as he is sure to be a warm order.'
Godolphin saddle two in the £85,000 added nine-furlong contest, with Frankie Dettori opting to ride next best in the betting Rio De La Plata at 8/1 ahead of stablemate Vesuve, the mount of Ted Durcan.
Sir Michael Stoute's Confront is 9/1 third best along with King's Gambit, who is bidding for better luck on his return to York after losing out by a whisker to Wigmore Hall in the John Smith's Cup.
