Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola is hopeful Kevin De Bruyne could return from injury in time to face Brighton in Sunday’s pivotal Premier League showdown.

Speaking at his pre-match press conference, Guardiola said: “He has made part of the training sessions for the past two days. He could (play).”
On Fernandinho the news was not so good, with Guardiola adding: “He is not available. I don’t know (about the FA Cup final) – but maybe.”
The City boss added on the prospect of facing Brighton: “We have analysed them this week.
“We know how well they defend. It is always difficult. We just have to focus on the game we play.”

The City boss preferred to concentrate on his own players rather than worry about Liverpool facing Wolves.
He said: “It is better to focus on what we have to do.
“If we win we don’t have to look at anything else. Why should we be distracted by anything else.”
Whatever the outcome on Sunday, Guardiola believes his players should be proud of the season they have produced.
