Man City handed Kevin De Bruyne boost ahead of Leeds clash

A major update on the wellbeing of Manchester City star Kevin De Bruyne has come to the fore on Thursday evening.

For those who may have missed it, midfielder De Bruyne was forced to sit out both of City’s last two outings, against Fulham and West Ham United.

This came after the Belgian international picked up a leg issue late in the club’s drubbing of Arsenal last week.

Ahead of the Premier League champions’ showdown with Leeds United this weekend, questions over KDB’s availability, in turn, had continued to circle.

As alluded to above, though, late on Thursday, fears surrounding the midfield creator’s status appear to have been put to bed.

This comes after De Bruyne was spotted back in first-team training alongside the rest of Pep Guardiola’s squad.
