From ground-sharing and ownership battles to a return to the Premier League, the Sky Blues’ rise reflects the spirit of the city itself, writes DAVID CONWAY
MANCHESTER CITY boss Pep Guardiola confirmed that Ruben Dias could be back and available for his side’s game against Brighton tonight.
While Kyle Walker remains absent, Dias and Kevin De Bruyne are eligible to return to the City squad for the match.
“Ruben trained really good today and today but it's been seven weeks off,” Guardiola said. “Ruben is a guy who knows his body, his tempo and we are more than delighted he’s back.”
The Blues manager added that he thinks he could be fit to play a full 90 despite having spent seven weeks away from the team:“Doctors told me between six and eight weeks. Now it is seven so we are within that margin.
