Manchester City have received a massive boost ahead of Sunday’s must win match against West Ham

Pep Guardiola told the media during his pre-game press conference that how De Bruyne trained would dictate if he would be available for Sunday’s match. When asked about De Bruyne’s condition, Guardiola told the media: “We will see today. Yesterday he was off, today we train.”

The question marks surrounding De Bruyne’s availability now appear to have been answered. Given that the midfielder has now trained, he appears to have overcome the knock he suffered against Tottenham. De Bruyne will likely have a crucial role to play in helping his team break down West Ham’s defence.

With Kevin De Bruyne spotted training ahead of Sunday’s match, it means only Ederson is unavailable for the game at the Etihad Stadium. City’s number one keepers season is over after he suffered a fractured eye socket against Tottenham. Besides Ederson being unavailable, Pep Guardiola will have a full squad to choose from as Manchester City bid to create history on Sunday.
