Good news for faltering Manchester City

 Good news has been delivered to Manchester City in the English Premier League (EPL), which has been having a hard time recently. Key midfielder Kevin De Bruyne has returned from injury and started training.

British media "Manchester Evening News" reported on the 19th that "Brawiner returned from injury after four months and joined official training ahead of the 2023 FIFA Club World Cup semifinal against the Urawa Reds (Japan) on the 20th."

De Bruyne has 64 goals and 105 assists in 243 matches in the EPL, and De Bruyne's return is very much for Manchester City.

De Bruyne is the essence of Manchester City, led by Pep Guardiola for a long time, and his presence alone changes the weight of the second line.

However, he has yet to show his presence this season. After playing 23 minutes in the opening game against Burnley in August, he collapsed due to injury and was off the field for about four months.

Manchester City is very happy to see De Bruyne return to the fourth place after slumping to one win, four draws and one loss in six recent EPL matches. It is all the more so because the team has to go through a fierce battle between England and Saudi Arabia for the Club World Cup. 스포츠토토

However, Guardiola is determined not to force De Bruyne to start despite his tight schedule. "It is clear that De Bruyne is an important player. However, he should not feel pressure to return to the team as soon as possible," Guardiola said.

De Bruyne is expected to make his comeback in the match against Urawa, or in the final match that will take place on March 23 if he wins. He will further strengthen his physical condition to extend his playing time in the match against Everton, which will take place on March 28.
