Manchester City are hopeful of welcoming Kevin De Bruyne back into the team ahead of the Premier League clash against Burnley.

De Bruyne has been missing since he suffered a knee injury during the first game of the season against Arsenal.

But he has been training with the club in recent weeks.

The Belgian international will undergo a fitness test to determine if he is ready for competitive action.

City face a crucial period of seven games in 23 days, which include key Champions League and Premier League clashes.
