Man City’s injury news and return dates prior to their match against Newcastle include Akanji, Grealish, and Gonzalez.

Newcastle United is scheduled to visit the Etihad Stadium on Saturday, marking Manchester City’s return to Premier League competition.

Last Saturday, City advanced to the fifth round of the FA Cup with a 2-1 victory over Leyton Orient. However, they were unable to replicate that success in the Champions League during the interim.However, prior to that, the focus will shift to a significant Premier

League match in which they will face off against a direct competitor for a top four position. Newcastle and City are currently in fifth and sixth place, respectively, and have the same number of points. Both teams are two points behind fourth-placed Chelsea and are aware that a victory will not only increase their chances of qualifying for the Champions League

next season but also harm the prospects of one of their opponents. However, City will be unable to rely on the services of a few critical players, and they are also concerned about the fitness of two additional talents. Given this, the following is an examination of the injury situation in the City.

A-kanji unable to return for the second half of the Champions League match against Real Madrid after preventing a Vinicius Jr cross. Despite limping through the second half, he did not return.

Guardiola has now verified that the Swiss defender will be sidelined for a minimum of the next two months due to an adductor injury. He stated, “The surgery is scheduled for Saturday, with an expected recovery time of 8-10 weeks.” The adductor is malfunctioning.

We extend our best wishes to Manu for a speedy recovery, as the dedication he has demonstrated this season has been truly remarkable.Rodri continues to harbor aspirations of returning to the team prior to the conclusion of the season, a notion that Guardiola regards as “unintelligent.”

City are willing to allow him to sit out the remainder of the season in order to concentrate on his rehabilitation, as they wish to provide him with the maximum amount of time to rehabilitate. However, Rodri aims to return for the Club World Cup in June as a potential comeback. Wydad AC (Club World Cup) – June 18 is a potential return date.
