Manchester City midfielder, Kevin De Bruyne, should soon return from injury after missing Sunday’s Premier League clash at home to Arsenal, manager Pep Guardiola has said.

The 33-year-old suffered a suspected groin problem in the 0-0 draw with Inter Milan in the Champions League on Wednesday.

City will host Championship side Watford in the League Cup third round on Tuesday before traveling to Newcastle United for a Premier League match over the weekend.

“I don’t think it will be long,” Guardiola said of De Bruyne’s expected return after City’s 2-2 draw with Arsenal.

“I cannot say how long for, I don’t know, for Newcastle, but it won’t be long. (He has) discomfort in his legs.”

De Bruyne was out for four months with a hamstring injury last season but made a memorable comeback at St James’ Park with a goal in a 3-2 win over Newcastle in January.

City leads the standings with 13 points from five matches.
