Ryan McAidoo - Returns from small problem McAidoo (undisclosed) had a small problem in preseason but has since worked with the team ahead of Sunday's Community Shield against Arsenal, according to coach Enzo Maresca. "The...
Impact McAidoo made his senior debut in the FA Cup third round against Exeter last season, having impressed throughout the campaign in Premier League 2, the FA Youth Cup, UEFA Youth League and EFL Trophy. He should hold a similar role heading into 2026/27, primarily featuring for the academy sides while remaining a fringe option for cup involvement with the first team.

Erling Haaland - Fit to play in Community Shield Haaland (heel) is fit to play in Sunday's Community Shield against Arsenal, according to coach Enzo Maresca, per City Xtra. "He was okay [after training on Thursday]! He had just a...
Impact Haaland finished last season as the Premier League's top scorer with 27 goals and eight assists across 35 appearances, part of a 38 goal campaign in all competitions as City won the FA Cup and EFL Cup. He capped that with an extraordinary World Cup, scoring seven goals across his first four appearances before going scoreless against England, and this minor scare now cleared, he looks set to lead Man City's attack into the Community Shield as he builds toward the new 2026/27 Premier League season.
AUGUST 14 • ROTOWIRE
Jack Grealish - Should be available Sunday Grealish (foot) should be available for Sunday's Community Shield against Arsenal, according to coach Enzo Maresca. "Everyone is fit. All of them are fit but some have only arrived...
Impact Grealish had missed the club's preseason tour of Asia while working individually as he continued recovering from injury, an absence tied to both his fitness and his uncertain long term future heading into the final year of his contract. He faces steep competition for a spot in the attack from Jeremy Doku, Omar Marmoush, Antoine Semenyo and Phil Foden, though he showed signs of returning to top form during a loan spell at Everton, contributing two goals, six assists and 38 chances created across 18 starts in 2025/26.

Rodri - Back in Manchester Rodri (back) was spotted at the training ground in Manchester Friday, despite transfer links to either Real Madrid or Barcelona for a potential imminent move, according to coach En...
Impact Rodri recently underwent successful minor back surgery and has begun a short rehabilitation spell, with Nico Gonzalez and Mateo Kovacic expected to pick up additional minutes while he works his way back. His return to the club amid ongoing transfer speculation adds another layer of uncertainty to his situation, with more clarity likely to emerge as the window progresses. Rodri will not be available for Sunday's Community Shield against Arsenal, however, as he remains in rehab following the procedure.

Manchester City closing in on agreement to sell 28-year-old midfielder to Saudi Pro League club: Reports Manchester City are close to an agreement with Saudi Pro League outfit Al-Qadsiah for the transfer of midfielder Tijjani Reijnders, as per reports.
AUGUST 13 • SPORTSKEEDA.COM
Tijjani Reijnders - Absent amid transfer talks Reijnders was present at Manchester City's open training but did not participate, with the situation thought to be related to ongoing transfer talks, according to Sam Lee.
Impact Reijnders doesn't appear to figure prominently into new coach Enzo Maresca's plans given the crowded midfield picture, and this absence adds to that uncertainty. He contributed five goals and two assists across 28 Premier League appearances last season, including 19 starts, but now appears unlikely to be available for Sunday's Community Shield against Arsenal. His future is expected to become clearer in the coming days as the transfer situation develops.
AUGUST 13 • ROTOWIRE
Jeremy Doku - Signs five year extension Doku has signed a new five year contract with Manchester City through the summer of 2031, according to the club.
Impact Doku has made 131 appearances for City since joining from Rennes in 2023, contributing 22 goals and helping the club win five major trophies, including the Premier League, FA Cup, Carabao Cup, Club World Cup and Community Shield. The Belgian winger has earned 48 caps for his country and helped Belgium reach the quarterfinals of this summer's World Cup, and his new deal secures his long term future at the Etihad under incoming manager Enzo Maresca.
AUGUST 13 • ROTOWIRE
Elliot Anderson - Reports back to Manchester Anderson has reported back to Manchester to prepare for the new 2026/27 Premier League season, according to City Xtra.
Impact Anderson posted four goals and four assists across 38 league appearances for Nottingham Forest last season before his summer move to City became the most expensive British transfer ever, and delivered an impressive display in midfield at the World Cup, contributing 21 tackles, 16 clearances and interceptions during the competition. His return to club training now shifts focus to preseason preparations as he begins integrating into new manager Enzo Maresca's midfield ahead of his first season at the Etihad.
AUGUST 12 • ROTOWIRE
Marc Guehi - Ready for new campaign Guehi is back in Manchester to prepare for the new 2026/27 Premier League season, according to City Xtra.
Impact Guehi made 35 Premier League appearances split between Crystal Palace and Manchester City last season, scoring three goals after his January move to the Etihad, and finished the World Cup as a reliable defensive presence for England, tallying 27 clearances, six interceptions and two clean sheets across eight appearances (seven starts). His return to club training now shifts focus to preseason preparations as he looks to solidify his place in City's back line heading into Premier League and Champions League play under new coach Enzo Maresca.
AUGUST 12 • ROTOWIRE
Jeremy Doku - Trickling back into fold at City Doku is back with Manchester City ahead of the 2026/27 Premier League season, according to the club.
Impact Doku finished last season with five goals and five assists across 30 Premier League appearances and helped City win both the FA Cup and Carabao Cup in what was his finest campaign to date. His World Cup with Belgium was a bit rougher by his standards, closing the tournament without a goal contribution across five appearances, including four starts, despite four completed dribbles and 10 duels won in the loss to Spain. His return to club training now shifts focus to preseason preparations as he looks to build on last season's breakout form under new manager Enzo Maresca.
AUGUST 12 • ROTOWIRE
Nico O'Reilly - Continues preseason in Manchester O'Reilly is continuing his preseason buildup in Manchester ahead of the 2026/27 Premier League season, according to the club.
Impact O'Reilly capped a breakout campaign by taking home both the Etihad Player of the Season and Premier League Young Player of the Year awards, making 53 appearances across all competitions while producing six goals and eight assists as one of manager Pep Guardiola's most trusted options at left back and in midfield. He carried that momentum into the World Cup, starting four straight matches for England and racking up six tackles, three interceptions and eight clearances during the tournament, and his return to club training now turns the page toward preseason as he looks to build on a season that firmly established him as a first-team mainstay. Reports suggest new manager Enzo Maresca views O'Reilly primarily as a left back rather than a midfield option, meaning he will have to battle Josko Gvardiol and Rayan Ait-Nouri for minutes depending on the system the Spaniard chooses to deploy.
AUGUST 12 • ROTOWIRE
Rayan Cherki - Ready for new season Cherki is ready for the new 2026/27 Premier League season with Manchester City, back in England following his time with France, according to the club.
Impact Cherki finished last season with four goals and 12 assists across 33 Premier League appearances in his debut campaign at City, establishing himself as a key creative presence with 60 big chances created. His World Cup impact was limited, seeing little action behind Ousmane Dembele, Michael Olise and Bradley Barcola in the pecking order and finishing without a goal or assist across 124 minutes, but his return to club training now shifts focus to preseason preparations as he looks to build on a strong first year in England.
AUGUST 12 • ROTOWIRE
Erling Haaland - Back in Manchester Haaland is back in Manchester to prepare for the new 2026/27 Premier League season, according to the club.
Impact Haaland finished last season as the Premier League's top scorer with 27 goals and eight assists across 35 appearances, part of a 38 goal campaign in all competitions as City won the FA Cup and EFL Cup. He capped that with an extraordinary World Cup, scoring seven goals across his first four appearances before going scoreless against England, and his return to club training now shifts focus to preseason preparations as he looks to build on one of the most prolific individual seasons of his career.
