De Bruyne returns to Man City's squad for Wolves while Foden misses

Kevin de Bruyne returned to Man City's squad to face the Wolves while Phil Foden missed the game due to injury.

De Bruyne and Aymeric Laporte replaced Julian Alvarez and Nathan Ake in their last week's victory over the Spurs for their upcoming game against Wolverhampton Wanderers. Meanwhile, Phil Foden also missed the game as Guardiola described him "unfit" before the game.

Foden's last start was the City’s 2-1 derby defeat to Manchester United at Old Trafford, where he was substituted after 57 minutes.

"He can play inside, but inside you have more attributes to do more things and pay attention more because there are more people, it is not just 'I am going to press and run', it is when and where,"

said Guardiola.

"The spaces are minor. Wider you have time but what is important is Phil has the quality to play in these small, small spaces, it is not easy to find.”

Man City XI:

Ederson; Rico Lewis, Manuel Akanji, John Stones, Aymeric Laporte; Ilkay Gundogan, Rodri; Jack Grealish, Kevin De Bruyne, Riyad Mahrez; Erling Haaland
