Manchester City manager Manuel Pellegrini has confirmed that Jesus Navas will play no part in Monday's Premier League match against West Bromwich Albion.

The 28-year-old is struggling with an ankle problem, while Yaya Toure and David Silva are also on the injury list.

"Yaya Toure, David Silva and Jesus Navas - the three of them are injured at the moment," Pellegrini told reporters. "Yaya is improving, but it is a muscle injury so it is difficult for him to be fit so soon."

City are six points adrift of league leaders Liverpool in the table with one game in hand.
