De Bruyne may return for Barcelona clash
Manchester city midfielder Kevin De Bruyne may be back for his side's Champions League clash with Barcelona after picking up a hamstring injury in September.
The Belgian midfielder picked up a hamstring injury against Swansea on 24 September but may be back to face Barcelona next Tuesday after it was initally thought that he'd miss a month of first team action.
De Bruyne has returned to light training for Manchester City and underwent treatment in Barcelona before going on a warm-weather break in Marbella where he continued his recovery.
However, City's Premier league clash against Everton will come too soon for the 25-year-old.
The Citizens are likely to want the playmaker back as soon as possible, as they have failed to win in both the games that he has missed, including a 2-0 defeat away to Tottenham on 2 October.
