Manchester City team news: Injury, suspension list vs. West Ham United

Sports Mole rounds up Manchester City's latest injury and suspension news ahead of their Premier League game with West Ham United on February 19.

Manchester City are scheduled to return to Premier League action on Wednesday night as they take on West Ham United at the Etihad Stadium.

The initial fixture, scheduled for February 9, was one of many sporting contests which were postponed due to Storm Ciara.

However, for the first time since being handed a two-year European ban, Pep Guardiola's side will take to the pitch looking to boost their chances of ending the campaign in second position in the standings.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up City's latest injury and suspension news ahead of squaring off against the Hammers.

Status: Major doubt
Type of injury: Knee
Possible return date: February 19 (vs. West Ham)

Having recently spent time training with the rest of his teammates, Sane is believed to be closing in on a return from a serious knee injury. As it stands, an appearance in this game appears unlikely, although do not rule out the Germany international featuring among the replacements.


Raheem Sterling

Status: Out
Type of injury: Hamstring
Possible return date: February 22 (vs. Leicester City)

During the closing stages against Spurs, Sterling sustained what appeared to be a hamstring injury. Although Guardiola will be hoping that Sterling returns as soon as possible, no risks will be taken in this game.
