Midfielder is in City’s squad for Club World Cup in Saudi ArabiaHaaland unlikely to feature against Palace due to foot injury
Kevin De Bruyne is determined to become the “best player in the world” on returning from a hamstring injury sustained in Manchester City’s opening-day win at Burnley.
The 32–year-old was forced off after 23 minutes and required surgery. His recovery is ahead of schedule and the Belgium international is in Pep Guardiola’s squad for next week’s Fifa Club World Cup in Saudi Arabia, although whether he is fit enough to be given minutes is unclear.
