Manchester City team news: Injury, suspension list vs. Dinamo Zagreb

Sports Mole rounds up Manchester City's latest injury and suspension news ahead of Wednesday's Champions League clash with Dinamo Zagreb.

Manchester City will look to put the disappointment of Saturday's defeat to Manchester United behind them when they travel to face Dinamo Zagreb in the Champions League.

Pep Guardiola's men are now 14 points behind leaders Liverpool following the loss to Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's side.

Such a result places even more importance on City's campaign in the Champions League, with the Premier League champions already confirmed as group winners ahead of this game.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up City's latest injury and suspension news ahead of this fixture.

Possible return date: January 18 (vs. Crystal Palace)

The German underwent knee surgery in August after sustaining ligament damage but has made good progress in his recovery ahead of returning to action next month.

Oleksandr Zinchenko
