Manchester City coach Pep Guardiola has confirmed Kevin de Bruyne’s return to the starting lineup. He lost four matches after testing positive for Covid-19 and returned to the field last Saturday against Watford in the Premier League.
“Kevin was improving his physical condition and was infected with the coronavirus. It was a setback. Tomorrow it will start and let’s see how many minutes it can play. He has to go back and fight for position like everyone else. But he doesn’t have to show me anything at all,” said Pep.
For the match against RB Leipzig, at 2:45 pm (GMT) this Tuesday, for the Champions League, Guardiola said that Gabriel Jesus will be left out. The player took a blow to the leg in the last round of the English.
Leader of Group A with 12 points, City are already classified for the round of 16 of the tournament, alongside Paris Saint-Germain.
