Two Manchester City stars, Bernardo Silva and Ruben Dias, have been sent home early from international duty ahead of their club’s crucial clash with Arsenal. Manchester City is in the Premier League title race and still has a chance at winning a treble this season. Despite being undefeated in 22 games, City is currently third in the Premier League table, trailing Arsenal and Liverpool by one point. The match against Arsenal next week is considered a pivotal moment in the title race.
With Bernardo Silva and Ruben Dias being sent home early, Pep Guardiola will have two key players rested and ready for the upcoming match against Arsenal. This decision was made by the national team manager to test different players ahead of Euro 2024. Guardiola will be pleased to have two players in top form and well-rested for the important game. Matheus Nunes, who also played in the international match, remains with the squad and could use the minutes to further impress.
The match against Arsenal will have significant implications for the Premier League title race, with the victor potentially taking the lead in the standings. Guardiola will need all his key players ready and fit for the crucial game, and having Silva and Dias rested will be a boost for Manchester City’s chances. The international break is a delicate time for clubs, as they hope their players return injury-free and in good shape for the remaining season fixtures.
