Manchester City have a 23 man squad for their Champions League tie with Young Boys
The promising 19-year-old forward was named in Pep Guardiola's travelling squad for the match in Bern on Wednesday evening and trained with the first team on Tuesday as they got their first taste of an artificial pitch that they are not looking forward to playing on.
John Stones and Jack Grealish were also among the group training and Guardiola referenced the return of both England stars as City look to build some momentum in the Premier League. Winning their double header against Young Boys will allow them to give full focus to domestic competitions for the winter months and rest players in their remaining group games if they are able to get the job done early.
City have recovered from a spate of injuries early in the season and now have just Kevin De Bruyne missing from their squad. Guardiola recently defended the size of the group available to him, saying it would be too difficult to control with everyone fit if there were to be any more additions. They will hope that the playing surface does not cause any problems on Wednesday ahead of the Manchester derby on Sunday.
