Former City skipper Graeme Lee is set to leave Notts County when the transfer window opens at the end of the week.

The 32-year-old centre half has six months left on his Magpies contract but is not in the plans of manager Paul Ince and has been told he can go.

Lee moved to Meadow Lane from the Bantams before the start of last season as part of Stuart McCall’s budget-slashing.

He helped them to promotion from League Two but was sent off on his return to Valley Parade in the Johnstone’s Paint Trophy.
