Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola has provided a fresh injury update on Kevin de Bruyne ahead of the FA Cup fifth round tie against Swansea City tonight.
The Cityzens have been without their talisman for the last five games since picking up an injury in the 2-0 win over Aston Villa three weeks ago.
They have however remained in an unstoppable form despite that blow, winning all five of their games since and going five points clear at the top of the Premier League.
Guardiola has revealed that the playmaker has returned to individual training and is feeling ‘very good’ at the moment.
“He is getting well he is already training, not with the team but alone and he is feeling well. It’s good, really good. I cannot say. What’s important is day by day he is feeling very good,” he told the club’s official website.
When asked whether the Champions League game against Monchengladbach in a fortnight was a reasonable target for De Bruyne’s return to action, Guardiola has said that he has no idea whether the 29-year-old will be available for the game.
“I cannot say. What’s important is day by day he is feeling very good,” he further told.
Man City fans are happy to know their key man could be back in full team training soon. Here’s how some fans reacted to the news on Twitter.
So happy to hear that
