Impact Stones is trending in the right direction in the final phase of his recovery from a thigh injury after returning to full team training for the first time on Thursday, putting him close to a return to the match squad. That comeback is expected before the end of the month, though it is unlikely to come with an immediate spot in the starting XI, as he is set to work back in through a rotational role once fully fit.

Still hopeful to return soon Stones (thigh) is still hopeful to return soon, according to manager Pep Guardiola.

Impact Stones remains without a quality update having not featured since Dec. 2 because of a muscle injury. Given the recent happenings that include returning Max Alleyne from loan and possibly transferring in Marc Guehi, the outlook doesn't look great for Stones. Even when he returns, he's failed to remain consistently healthy the last few seasons.

No timeline to return Stones (thigh) has no timeline to return, coach Pep Guardiola said in the press conference, according to Sam Lee from The Athletic. "No idea [when he will return]."

Impact Stones missed all the games since early December due to a thigh injury and still has no timeline to return. The versatile defender will likely spend some more weeks on the sidelines, but his absence will not impact the starting XI since he has mainly been a rotational player when fit this season.

Ruled out Saturday Stones (thigh) will not make the trip to Nottingham Forest on Saturday, according to manager Pep Guardiola.

Impact Stones will remain sidelined, missing his fourth consecutive league match due to a thigh injury. He was not expected to be ready for the Nottingham game and is aiming for a return in the new year against Sunderland. Given his ongoing fitness issues this season, Ruben Dias and Josko Gvardiol will likely continue as Manchester City's starting center-back pairing for the time being.

Impact Stones missed the last three games due to a thigh injury but could be set to return next week against Nottingham Forest or on the first day of the new year against Sunderland. The return of the defender will be a nice boost to the backline to give the starters some rest since he should resume a rotational role for the Citizens moving forward.

Impact Stones suffered a thigh injury last week, ruling him out of the last two games across all competitions, but it is likely only a minor issue, as assistant coach Kolo Toure expects him to be back soon. Stones' next chance to make the squad will come against West Ham United next Saturday. That said, Stones has mainly been a bench option this campaign, therefore his absence doesn't have an impact on the starting squad.

Timeline uncertain Stones (leg) has no clear date for a return, according to manager Pep Guardiola. "Leg. I don't know yet [how long he will be out]."

Impact Stones had been out with an injury last match and is set to miss further time as he recovers, with the injury deemed a leg problem. However, he has no timeline for a return, leaving the club without a defensive replacement for the time being. He is serving in more of a depth role for the club and serves in the rotating defense, leaving the club with one less option in the defense.

Impact Stones missed Saturday's 3-0 victory against Sunderland due to an undisclosed injury that will rule him out for the time being. A precise timeline to return is not yet known as the extent of his injury still has to be confirmed by the club. That said, the defender has been mainly a bench option this season for City, therefore his absence won't impact the starting XI.
