Man City boss Guardiola: No reason to pressure De Bruyne

Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola expects Kevin de Bruyne to be fit for the New Year.

De Bruyne is recovering from hamstring surgery.

Guardiola said, “I spoke to him two days ago and he told me he is feeling really good.

“But with these types of injuries, it is important that you allow them to heal completely. There is no point in putting pressure on him to get back to playing quickly.

"Then we risk taking two steps backward again."
