Manchester City coach Pep Guardiola is good news for Liverpool fans in anticipation of the upcoming summit between the two clubs on Thursday during the 21st round of the Premier League.
Guardiola revealed after the home team 's 3-1 win over Southampton Sunday that Belgian international Kevin De Bruin was going to miss a big game Thursday against Liverpool.
Guardiola said after the end of the match, in comments quoted by the British network "Sky", that De Bruin would miss the Liverpool match. The Spaniard said: "The injury suffered by De Bruin does not matter, but may require him to stay away from Liverpool's face."
He explained that the muscular injury suffered by De Bruin was not a surprise to us, as the Belgian star had just returned from a strong knee ligament injury missed for six weeks.
Guardiola said: "I do not know what is his current situation, but he could not participate in Southampton and therefore did not travel with us to London, but that's not a big problem, it is natural that the Player be exposed to such things after a long period of no injury, I can say that he can participate with us in the Liverpool match Thursday at the Al Ittihad stadium in Manchester.
It should be noted that the first round between Liverpool and Manchester City, organized by the stadium "Anfield", ended with a draw between the two teams.
