Joe Hart says that he "really enjoyed" his loan spell with Torino, but will not be staying with the Italian club for another season.

Manchester City keeper Joe Hart has confirmed that he has no plans to return to Torino next season despite an 'enjoyable' loan spell with the Serie A club.

The England international fell down the pecking order upon Pep Guardiola's arrival at the Etihad Stadium last summer and opted for a season-long loan in Turin.

Hart failed to truly win over Torino supporters, however, with president Urbano Cairo confessing earlier this month that he "did not expect so many mistakes" from a player of his calibre.

With City reportedly reluctant to offload the 30-year-old to a Premier League rival, however, there had been talk of a return to the Italian outfit in 2017-18.

These rumours have now been put to bed, with Hart telling ESPN: "I really enjoyed it. I'm not going to come back, but I had a good time."

Hart conceded 62 goals in 36 games for Torino, keeping just five clean sheets all term.
