Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola has revealed that Jack Grealish and Gabriel Jesus are both available to play in Saturday's Premier League clash against Everton at Goodison Park.
Grealish has missed the last three games with a shin injury, while Jesus has been ruled out of the last five matches with a minor muscle problem, which he sustained on international duty with Brazil earlier this month.
However, both players were pictured in training on Thursday with the rest of the first-team squad, though there was no sign of academy graduate Cole Palmer, who has been out for over a month with an unspecified problem.
When asked by reporters in his pre-match press conference about updates on both Grealish and Jesus, Guardiola simply replied: "They are ready and so important for us.
"[Jesus is] so important in many aspects we don't have. For the inspiration, the movement in behind, the actions in the final third. He and Jack are back."
Guardiola has also confirmed that Oleksandr Zinchenko is in contention to play, despite Russia's invasion in his native Ukraine.
With Liverpool not playing in the Premier League this weekend, due to their involvement in the EFL Cup final against Chelsea, Man City could move six points clear at the summit with a win over Frank Lampard's Everton. body check tags ::
