Manchester City midfielder Kevin de Bruyne picked up a groin injury against Everton last weekend, forcing him to miss the team's 2-0 win over Dinamo Zagreb in the Champions League on Tuesday, October 2, 2019.
However, manager Pep Guardiola has downplayed the severity of the injury, stating that De Bruyne could return to the squad for Sunday's Premier League match against Wolverhampton Wanderers.
"It's not serious — today he could not play but we'll see for Sunday," Guardiola told reporters on Tuesday.
Guardiola added that he is unsure if De Bruyne will be fit for the match, but believes he will be ready after the international break.
