Pep Guardiola was in a mellow mood ahead of Manchester City’s home clash with Leeds but had some positive news.
After Kevin De Bruyne was pictured back in training on Thursday, the Blues boss confirmed he was in contention for the starting XI on Saturday, should he come through Friday’s training session in good shape.
He missed the wins over Fulham and West Ham due to a leg knock but his return would undoubtedly be a huge boost for City, who will be looking to prevent a new manager bounce with Sam Allardyce in the dugout for his first Leeds outing.
