Manchester City midfielder Kalvin Phillips is set to return to the squad next week after spending nearly two months on the sidelines due to a shoulder injury.

Manchester City midfielder Kalvin Phillips is in contention to feature against Chelsea in the EFL Cup on Wednesday.

Phillips have been sidelined for nearly two months following shoulder surgery, and as a result, the 26-year-old has only made three appearances for Man City since joining the club in the summer

Having spent the majority of the season on the treatment table, Phillips's hopes of going to the World Cup appeared to be slim, but the midfielder could still be available for England selection with a return to action looking imminent.

Man City boss Pep Guardiola told reporters: "Kalvin feels much, much better. On Friday Kalvin trained a second day full session, full contact. He feels good.

"In the next game against Chelsea he will be on the bench. If he is going to play or not I don't know."

Despite his limited game time, Phillips will be harbouring hopes of making Southgate's England squad, which is expected to be announced on Thursday, November 10.
