Grealish, Jesus, Palmer - Man City injury news and possible return dates ahead of Tottenham clash

Manchester City return to Premier League action tomorrow when they host Tottenham Hotspur at the Etihad Stadium.

It's been a very good week for Pep Guardiola's. Last Saturday they thumped Norwich City at Carrow Road before following that impressive display up with a convincing 5-0 hammering of Sporting Lisbon in the Champions League.

They are now in great form ahead of a visit from Spurs who are still battling for fourth place but have struggled in their last two games - losing to Southampton and Wolves.

Here is the latest from the Etihad's treatment room ahead of the fixture.

Jack Grealish

Injury: Shin

Possible return date: March

What Guardiola has said: "I'm not a doctor. The shin, his symptoms seems much less than he had last season in Birmingham but I don't know, I didn't talk to the doctor.

"Right after we will see, but I think he will not be for tomorrow but hopefully the next weeks."

Gabriel Jesus

Injury: Muscular

Possible return date: TBC

What Guardiola has said: "Soon he [Jesus] will be ready. I spoke with him and he feels good, but he's not perfect with a few niggles, muscular. We have to be careful. Gabriel is coming back soon, hopefully."

Cole Palmer

Injury: Foot

Return date: TBC

What Guardiola has said: "Cole is not ready. After the FA Cup win over Swindon he had a problem and is still not available. He hasn't trained with us since then. We will see what happens in the next weeks."
