This gives the defender his second goal in their past two games, his only two goals of the season. However, he also has an assist, with three goal contributions in 11 appearances, a solid stat line for a defender.

Impact Gvardiol had a slow start to the season, missing the pre-season and the first three games of the Premier League campaign as he has been struggling with patella tendonitis in his knees for the past 10 months. The Croatian is carefully managing his workload in the gym before every outdoor training session in order to avoid any injury. Since returning to the pitch, Gvardiol has played all the games in the backline except one against Everton in the Premier League, contributing two assists, 12 tackles, 14 interceptions and 43 clearances in 11 appearances across all competitions.

'I have to keep up' - Erling Haaland admits he faces huge challenge to beat Harry Kane and Kylian Mbappe to European Golden Boot this season

Assist Wednesday Gvardiol assisted once to go with one shot (zero on goal), one cross (zero accurate) and one chance created in Wednesday's 2-2 draw versus Monaco.

Impact Gvardiol would step up from the defense to provide an assist Wednesday, finding Erling Haaland in the 15th minute for the opening goal. This is his first assist of the season, taking five matches to reach that mark. He would also record two tackles and three clearances in the defense, a decent match from the Croatian.

Solid defensively Gvardiol registered two tackles (two won), nine clearances and two interceptions in Sunday's 1-1 draw against Arsenal.

Impact Gvardiol was back in the center of the defense Sunday, registering a solid match against the Gunners. His club would park the bus for most of the second half, leading to a lot of defensive stats, notching two tackles won, two interceptions and nine clearances. This continues the trend of minimal attacking work, likely to continue if he remains in a central role.

Three shots from defense Gvardiol had three shots (one on goal) in Thursday's 2-0 win against Napoli.

Impact Gvardiol was working his way up the field in numerous spots Thursday, with the defender given a bit more space to roam after a Napoli red card despite starting in the middle of the defense. That would lead him to three shots in the outing, coming close to a goal on one of those shots. He would also add three interceptions and a clearance, while also earning a second straight clean sheet since returning.

Starting in defense Gvardiol (undisclosed) is in the starting XI for Sunday's match against Manchester United.

Impact Gvardiol was a close call to make it Sunday, but is fit and ready to go after earning a spot in the starting XI. This is his season debut as he will try to help City out of the hole they have dug to begin the season, although he is taking on more of a central role Sunday after typically playing at left-back with the club.

Could be back Sunday Gvardiol (fitness) could be back for Sunday's derby against Manchester United, coach Pep Guardiola said in the press conference. "The rest are fine."

Impact Gvardiol was back in team training on Thursday and could be back available for Sunday's derby against Manchester United. This is good news for City since the Croatian has been an undisputed starter in the backline last season and he will bring a big boost for the team if he reach full fitness in the upcoming fixtures. Gvardiol could even see a starting role on Sunday with Rayan Ait-Nouri out due to an ankle injury.

SEPTEMBER 12, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Back in team training Gvardiol (fitness) was spotted back in team training on Thursday, the club posted.

Impact Gvardiol has been struggling with his fitness in the early stretch of the season and has yet to make his first appearance for the Citizens. The defender was spotted back in team training on Thursday, suggesting he could be an option for the match squad in Sunday's derby against United. Gvardiol was an undisputed starter in the backline last season and will look to reclaim that spot once fully fit.

SEPTEMBER 12, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Still not an option Gvardiol (undisclosed) is out for Sunday's match against Brighton.

Impact Gvardiol is not yet recovered from his undisclosed issues, as the defender is once again out for City. This is a tough run for the defender, as he still has yet to play this year despite being one of the club's regular starters. That said, he will look for his return after the international break, although that is up in the air.

AUGUST 31, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Remains out Gvardiol (undisclosed) is out for Saturday's match against Tottenham, according to his club.

Impact Gvardiol will not be able to return after missing the season opener, as the defender is still not recovered from his issues. This will likely leave the club to have John Stones start in the defense after he took what was thought to be Gvardiol's spot in the opener. The Croatian will hope his return comes soon, not missing too much of the campaign as the club pushes to be on top of the league again.

AUGUST 22, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Out against Wolves Gvardiol will miss Saturday's opener against Wolves with an undisclosed knock, according to manager Pep Guardiola.

Impact Gvardiol missed the friendly against Palermo a week ago and apparently hasn't recovered in time for Saturday. That means City's options in the back will likely be Ruben Dias with Manuel Akanji, John Stones, Nathan Ake or Abdukodir Khusanov. It's unclear if the injury will keep Gvardiol out an extended period, but fortunately for City, they have a bevy of options in the back while Rayan Ait-Nouri plays at left-back.
