“[Rodri] is getting better,” Guardiola confirmed. “Still he hasn’t trained so we will see in the next few days. Always I am confident.”

City’s other injury issues include Ruben Dias and Josko Gvardiol, with Guardiola again confirming that the defenders are improving, but not taking part in full training so far.
“Ruben [Dias] is not yet with the team,” Guardiola said. “Him, Josko [Gvardiol] and Rodri are getting better.”
Excluding those three, City have a clean bill of health going into the final month of the season, a luxury for any club with something to play for at this stage. West Ham United are the only club in the Premier League with fewer injury doubts at the time of writing.
