Injury boost as Manchester City man returns to training ahead of Leicester clash

Manchester City have received an injury boost ahead of Saturday’s trip to face Leicester City, with Raheem Sterling returning to training. It’s second versus third in the Premier League – Man City could go seven points clear in the runners-up spot or see their lead narrowed to just a single point.

It’s unlikely the 25-year-old will make the matchday squad, however, as Pep Guardiola said in Thursday’s pre-match press conference that he’s “in the latter stages of his recovery” rather than being 100%.

Sterling has made 35 appearances in all competitions this season, scoring and creating 26 goals.
