Kevin De Bruyne is nearing a return to full fitness and is even in contention to return to the Manchester City squad for their game against Liverpool on Sunday.
The Belgian has been out of action since the first week of the season with a knee injury.
He returned to training this week and it is understood that he could be part of Pep Guardiola’s match-day squad as soon as this weekend, although he would not be ready to start and a final decision regarding his involvement will be taken nearer the game.
