He's back! Manchester City get huge boost with this player returning

Manchester City are on the path for greatness. After achieving one of the biggest accomplishments a club can last season with the continental treble, City have not stopped there. The club have established themselves as the best in Europe, and when they look around the continent currently, they can smell the blood of their enemies. The group of clubs is weak right now, and the gap between them and City feels like it’s rising.

The club has already progressed to the next round of the Champions League where they will face FC Copenhagen. Assuming City handle their business there, that leaves them only five games away from going back-to-back in the competition. With how much everyone else is struggling that is not out of the realm of possibility.

Meanwhile in the Premier League the club are currently second and five points behind a familiar foe in Liverpool. The two clubs have had their battles in the past six years in the league and this season is shaping up to be another battle between the two. Manchester City have not been their typically dominant selves in the league, and they underwent their worst ever run under Pep Guardiola with two wins in seven games. The club have been their usual selves as of recently, and a big reason for that is the recent win in the Club World Cup in Saudi Arabia.

Manchester City have had huge injury concerns this year with the likes of Kevin De Bruyne being injured, Erling Haaland being injured, and John Stones also being injured for majority of the season. Three crucial players that mean a lot to City and their losses have been felt. Kevin De Bruyne in his return showed his importance and how crucial he is.

Who has returned to training?

John Stones is back in training as Manchester City are looking to get a spark in defense. The club have had to rely on Akanji more than they should have this season, and the first year for Gvardiol has been rough. With Stones back, City hope for his veteran presence to help sort out any issues.
