In a timely boost for Manchester City amidst their current struggles in the 2023/2024 season, fans can breathe a sigh of relief as key player Kevin De Bruyne is confirmed to be back in training.
The charismatic and influential attacking midfielder, who has been sidelined since August 2023 due to a hamstring injury, returned to training ahead of the FIFA Club World Cup semi-final fixture scheduled for today, Tuesday, December 19, 2023.
While it remains uncertain whether KDB will feature in this crucial match for Man City, fans are thrilled to have him back in the squad. The official club statement noted, “Kevin De Bruyne was part of the action as City put the final preparations in place for our FIFA Club World Cup semi-final earlier today. The Belgian has been unavailable with a hamstring injury since the Premier League opener with Burnley in August and took another step in his recovery today.”
With Manchester City facing challenges in the Premier League, including the absence of Erling Haaland, De Bruyne’s return is seen as a welcomed addition to strengthen the squad.
