Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola is preparing his squad for upcoming matches against Luton Town and Real Madrid, with hopes for a successful outcome in both games. Despite a 3-3 draw in the UEFA Champions League, the team will return to Premier League action injury-free, with only Phil Foden picking up a minor knock.
Kevin De Bruyne’s late withdrawal due to illness and the absence of Kyle Walker and Nathan Ake from the travelling squad raise concerns for Guardiola. While he hopes for De Bruyne’s return against Luton Town, Walker’s recovery from a hamstring problem may take longer, with a focus on having him back for the Real Madrid game.
With upcoming matches against Luton Town, Real Madrid, and Chelsea in the FA Cup semi-final, Guardiola is relying on a full squad to pursue a potential repeat of last season’s Treble success. The manager is balancing hopes for player recoveries while preparing for crucial games in the final weeks of the season.
