Manchester City vs Manchester United - Aguero may return for City’s derby date
Posted Friday, April 06, 2018 by PA
Manchester City will check on the fitness of top scorer Sergio Aguero ahead of the derby at the Etihad Stadium.
The Argentina striker has been out for the past month with a knee injury but City are hopeful he could return for a game which could see them clinch the Premier League title.
Left-back Benjamin Mendy, who has been sidelined since September with a knee injury, is the only definite absentee.
Sergio Romero is the only United absentee.
The back-up goalkeeper is sidelined after being involved in a collision on Argentina duty, with 17-year-old Matej Kovar brought into first-team training on the eve of the derby as Kieran O’Hara is set to play in the reserves on Friday.
Versatile Daley Blind is back in contention for United, while Phil Jones, Marcos Rojo and Ander Herrera have also recently returned to full fitness.
