Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.Manchester City are considering linking up with French minnows AC Arles-Avignon, according to the Ligue 2 club's president.
Jean-Marc Conrad claims he has met several times with representatives from the Barclays Premier League club with a view to agreeing a partnership and they are set for more talks on Thursday.
However, he insists they are far from agreeing a deal at the moment.
"At present we have met several times but nothing has yet been settled," Conrad told Le Dauphine Libere.
"We have agreed that Manchester City representatives will come visit our facilities, this will happen on Thursday.
"But it is still too early to talk about a partnership."
ACA were promoted from the third division last season and are currently eighth in Ligue 2.
If a deal were to be agreed it could see City farm out their young players to the French club, while friendlies between the two would also be organised.
