In August, Manchester City midfielder Kevin De Bruyne suffered a severe ankle injury. Initially he was expected to miss about four months and therefore come back only before the New Year.

However, the Belgian's recovery went faster than expected. According to Man City's head coach Pep Guardiola, De Bruyne will resume training in the next few days.

‘Yeah, he’s making the last steps. He’ll start training in the next few days with us,’ said Guardiola.
