The centre-back is not believed to be far off from returning to full fitness following a thigh injury. However, Guardiola has emphasised that no risks will be taken with his recovery:
“[He is not] ready for the next games. Of course, he’s an important player for us for a long time, and he was injured for a long time last season; this season looks the same. He’s trying a lot and trying everything, but he’s not fit.”
Expected Return Date – mid-to-late January
