Maresca reveals Man City duo could return for Manchester derby

Manchester City boss Enzo Maresca expects that injured duo Nico O'Reilly and Jeremy Doku will both return to action soon. Both O'Reilly and Doku were absent from City training earlier today and have not travelled with the squad for the Blues' Champions League opener against Porto tomorrow night. However, they could be set to return in the Manchester derby this weekend. O'Reilly had been named in City's starting lineup against Coventry, but dropped out after suffering an injury in the warmup. Meanwhile, Doku has been sidelined since the Community Shield. "Nico probably yes. Jeremy, I'm not sure yet. We need to wait," Maresca answered on whether the duo will be available for his side's trip to Old Trafford.

Asked if Doku has suffered any setbacks in his recovery, he continued: "No. I think he got injured in the Community Shield final. I think it was two or three weeks ago, I don't remember exactly. But he is back. "I don't know if he can be available for the weekend but slowly, slowly he is back."
