Manchester City injury list with the Blues in the midst of a hectic schedule and several players sidelined.
Manchester City return to Premier League action this weekend when they travel to West Ham United.

City have the majority of their squad available, and Pep Guardiola confirmed on Friday that Erling Haaland was fit to feature. The striker sat out the win over Newcastle United in the FA Cup last weekend but played in Madrid. Here’s the injury latest from the Etihad.
