‘Thank God for that’, ‘Feels better now’ – Fans reacts as De Bruyne closes in on Manchester City return

Pep Guardiola has confirmed that Kevin De Bruyne has returned to training for Manchester City and is available for the trip to Brighton on Tuesday – which have got some Manchester City fans talking.

The 29-year-old has missed City’s last two games with a muscle injury, giving City a scare ahead of the meeting with Chelsea in Porto on May 29.

But Guardiola said the 29-year-old has returned to training ahead of Tuesday’s trip to Brighton.

“Kevin has trained in the last two days and is feeling good,” the City manager said of De Bruyne.

“Everyone knows Kevin is important but we will see his level over the next few days and when he is ready to play.”

De Bruyne’s return to training means that Sergio Aguero is the only known absentee for Tuesday’s match.

In reaction to the news shared on Twitter by City Xtra and City Chief, many Man City fans have expressed their thoughts and opinions.

Thank god for that.
