"With regret Manchester City announce that David Platt has this afternoon left his role as assistant manager at the club.
"David was offered the opportunity to continue his work with us but has declined the invitation. He has decided to leave his role with his close friend Roberto Mancini.
"David has made a significant contribution to the club's success since joining in 2010 and we wish him well with his career wherever that now takes him."
