Manchester City manager, Pep Guardiola has confirmed that midfielder, Kevin De Bruyne is ready to return to Etihad, but would not tell whether the midfielder will start against Burnley on Saturday.
The Belgium international suffered a serious knee ligament injury in August and has been sidelined ever since.
But when asked if De Bruyne is ready to return, Guardiola was quoted by Metro UK as saying, “Yes. I don’t know [if he will start]. I don’t know if he’s able to play 90 minutes.
“He trained really well in the last two weeks, he has no pain, he’s ready to be part of the group.
“He’s an important player for us, when a player is out I like when they come back. ‘Of course, there’s no doubt how important he is for us.”
