City manager concerned over injury of players ahead of FA Cup final against United

Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola is concerned about the fitness of stars Kevin De Bruyne, Jack Grealish, and Ruben Dias ahead of this week’s FA Cup final against Manchester United.

The 52-year-old Spaniard on Sunday admitted that he does not know if they will be fit for Saturday’s FA Cup clash.

‘We have four or five players with niggles, not big injuries, but they are injuries. The guys who didn’t play didn’t here were really, really exhausted the day before and mentally, they were completely drained,’ he said.

Guardiola also offered an update on Phil Foden, Riyad Mahrez, and Cole Palmer, saying: ‘Phil is in incredible form, Riyad as well, Cole was so active in many things.’

Manchester City will face Manchester United at Wembley Stadium before meeting Inter Milan in the UEFA Champions League final a week later.

The clash will be the first FA Cup final between the two Manchester sides in the competition’s 151-year history.

The Sky Blues clinched their third consecutive Premier League title last week.
