Man City boss Guardiola admits De Bruyne ankle concern

Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola admits Kevin de Bruyne's ankle is still a concern.

The Belgian's Euro 2020 campaign came to an end after he came off injured against Portugal in the last-16, before battling through 90 minutes of Roberto Martinez's side's quarter-final defeat to Italy.

De Bruyne came on with 11 minutes to play as the champions were shocked by Spurs on the opening day, but he was forced to miss Friday's training session.

Guardiola admits De Bruyne is a doubt for their clash with Norwich City.

"No, he could not train today. A little disturbing so we will see tomorrow," the Spaniard said in his pre-match presser.

"Kevin has a problem still with his ankle so tomorrow we will see how he feels."
