Man City’s 5ft 9in midfielder will return to face Burnley on Saturday

Manchester City have confirmed that Kevin De Bruyne will return to face Burnley on Saturday. The 29-year-old missed our Champions League win over Olympiacos on Wednesday as he was being rested by Pep Guardiola, but De Bruyne should be in line to start over the weekend.

In his absence, we opted for a midfield of Rodri, Ilkay Gundogan and Bernardo Silva but can’t afford to take any chances on Saturday. We’re 13th in the Premier League table and are coming off the back of a domestic defeat, so we desperately need a result.
