Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola said ahead of Manchester City's game against Bournemouth that De Bruyne, Grealish and Walker will not be available until after the international break.

Manchester City have been battered by injuries since the start of the season to the point where the Sky Blues have just enough players to cope with the overloaded schedule they face. 

Indeed, Pep Guardiola himself admitted he could not even afford to bring on Haaland in the second half of the Carabao Cup last-16 defeat to Spurs because he only has 13 players available

The Cityzens will have to play one last Premier League game against Bournemouth before they are boosted after the November international break with the returns of Jack Grealish, Kevin de Bruyne and Kyle Walker. 

"Kyle Walker, Kevin De Bruyne and Jack Grealish are unlikely to return before the international break," confirmed the Spanish coach. In addition, Guardiola said they are awaiting tests to find out the extent of Savinho's injury.
