Manchester City is facing injury concerns ahead of their upcoming match against Arsenal, with four players currently nursing injuries. Pep Guardiola’s side has benefited from a break in the intense Premier League title race and tough cup battles during the international break. Sixteen City players have been called up for international duty, with only one player not competing in friendlies.
Kevin De Bruyne, who recently returned from a hamstring injury, is now dealing with a groin strain that caused him to miss a recent FA Cup match. Kyle Walker pulled up with tightness during an England friendly, while Ederson suffered a thigh injury in a collision with a Liverpool player. Matheus Nunes also picked up a foot injury during international duty. Guardiola is hopeful that these players will recover in time to face Arsenal on March 31.
Despite the injuries, Guardiola remains optimistic about the players’ recovery timelines, with De Bruyne expected to return by March 31. Walker is also hopeful of being fit to face Arsenal, while Ederson’s return is anticipated after the international break. Nunes’ potential return date is also set for March 31, with Guardiola keeping a close eye on his progress.
