Man City Team News: Guardiola Confirms Major Blow As 3 Players Miss Tottenham Trip

Manchester City will look to wrap-up the Premier League title with a win when they take on Tottenham at Wembley on Saturday night.

Pep Guardiola has been speaking to the media at his pre-match press conference this afternoon and he’s provided a full team news and injury update ahead of the game.

The City boss revealed a major blow with the news that Sergio Aguero has been ruled out of the trip to London after feeling a reaction from his recent cameo appearances off the bench.

Aguero was rushed back from a knee injury to play in the final 15 minutes against Manchester United last weekend and was caught on the leg by a heavy challenge from Ashley Young.

The Argentinean international then made another appearance from the bench during City’s Champions League defeat to Liverpool in midweek, despite being unable to train following the United game.

Guardiola claims Aguero has been left unable to walk probably after playing on Tuesday night and has now ruled the South American striker out of the trip to Wembley this weekend.

In a double blow, John Stones is also still unavailable due to an on-going adductor injury while Fernandinho is suspended after picking up his tenth booking of the season last week.

City head in to the weekend action looking to bounce back from a week of disappointments having missed the chance to win the title against United and being knocked out of the Champions League.

However, Guardiola knows this is another great chance to get back to winning ways and wrap-up the title in style by beating one of their closest rivals, Tottenham.
