Manchester City have made a decision on Scott Carson's future just days after he was 'kicked out' of a title-winning party.
Man City were crowned Premier League champions on Sunday, becoming the first team in English football history to win the top flight four years in a row.
City's celebrations began with the trophy presentation on the Etihad Stadium pitch, before Pep Guardiola, his players and staff headed into Manchester to continue the party.

City's stars and their families celebrated their record-breaking title at Greek restaurant and bar Fenix in the city centre, with the festivities raging on until 5am on Monday morning.
The likes of Erling Haaland, Jack Grealish and Rodri were all photographed leaving the venue looking a little worse for wear, but at least they didn't get chucked out of the party like Scott Carson did.
Carson, City's third-choice goalkeeper, was reportedly kicked out of the party at 4am after he tried to fight a fellow party-goer.

According to Splash News, the 38-year-old was seen being removed from the venue, bringing an end to his boozy night.
The incident clearly isn't of great concern to City and Guardiola, as on Thursday it was reported that Carson is set to sign a new contract with the champions.
The former Liverpool goalkeeper's current deal expires this summer, but according to the Daily Mail's Jack Gaughan, he will sign a new one-year contract.

Carson has made just two appearances since joining City in 2019, but he plays an important role behind the scenes. City number one Ederson has previously credited the veteran with improving his game, while number two Stefan Ortega has also spoken glowingly about him.
"I’m the third-choice goalkeeper, I think it’s half of my job role to help the lads if they need anything," Carson previously said of his role.
"The other two lads are playing a lot more games than me and could be called upon at any time so if they want me to do a bit of shooting or crossing I am there to help them.
"If that means I’m there longer, it’s not a massive thing to do. That’s part of my role to be there to do that."
