Matheus Nunes - Set for preseason with City Nunes is back in the fold with Manchester City for preseason, ready to go after his return from the World Cup with Portugal, the club announced.
Impact Nunes barely featured at the tournament, logging just one minute before Portugal's exit ahead of the semifinals. He established himself as a fixture in City's lineup last season, starting 32 of 34 Premier League matches in a hybrid role that blended right back and midfield duties, contributing a goal and five assists while adding 57 tackles and 100 clearances to showcase his two-way versatility and workrate. He projects as City's primary right back under new coach Enzo Maresca, with Abdukodir Khusanov able to step in there when necessary. Nunes is expected to keep building toward full match fitness as preseason continues.

Mateo Kovacic - Plays half vs. Inter Milan Kovacic played the first half in Manchester City's preseason friendly against Inter Milan after returning from the World Cup with Croatia, the club announced.
Impact Kovacic contributed an assist across four appearances during the tournament. He is entering the final year of his City contract and wants clarity on his future soon, with transfer speculation surrounding a possible departure this summer given that even as a squad player he wouldn't get regular minutes at the club right now. Kovacic is expected to serve as a backup option in midfield if he remains at City for the coming season.

Ruben Dias - Ready for preseason with City Dias is training with Manchester City, ready for preseason after his run with Portugal at the World Cup, the club announced.
Impact Dias racked up five tackles and five interceptions across four appearances during the tournament, which ended before the semifinals. He remains City's defensive anchor, having started 24 of 26 Premier League games last season while helping marshal a back line that posted 11 clean sheets, adding 117 clearances, 23 interceptions and 17 blocks along the way. His shutout production makes him one of the game's most trusted center backs, even if City's depth at the position, with Josko Gvardiol, Abdukodir Khusanov and Marc Guehi all in the mix, means the exact pairing week to week is worth monitoring under new coach Enzo Maresca. Dias is expected to build up his fitness as preseason continues.
AUGUST 3 • ROTOWIRE
Gianluigi Donnarumma - Ready for preseason in Hong Kong Donnarumma is training with Manchester City in Hong Kong and looks ready for preseason, the club announced.
Impact Donnarumma took to life at City quickly in his debut campaign, ranking second in the Premier League with 15 clean sheets behind only Golden Glove winner David Raya. His shot-stopping reflexes and composure with the ball at his feet have made him one of the sport's premier goalkeepers, and his move from PSG hasn't diminished that reputation. With a proper preseason and a second year in the setup now under him, there's every reason to expect further growth as City look to get back into the title picture. Donnarumma is expected to remain the clear starter and keep building up his fitness as the preseason tour progresses.
AUGUST 3 • ROTOWIRE
Omar Marmoush - Ready for preseason after break Marmoush has returned to training with Manchester City and looks set for preseason after his participation with Egypt at the World Cup, the club announced.
Impact Marmoush did not register a goal or an assist across five appearances during the tournament, which ended in the round of 16 for Egypt. The forward endured an up and down first full season at City, contributing three goals and three assists while starting only eight of his 21 Premier League appearances, a modest return for a player who had been so prolific during his time at Eintracht Frankfurt. The versatile attacker, capable of playing centrally or from the flank, could see his role reshaped under new coach Enzo Maresca, though competition for forward spots remains fierce. Marmoush is expected to push for a larger role as preseason gets underway.

Rayan Ait-Nouri - Ready for new season Ait-Nouri is ready for the new season with Manchester City, playing the second half of Saturday's friendly against Inter during the Asian tour, the club posted.
Impact Ait-Nouri finished the World Cup with Algeria contributing solid defensive numbers, contributing 16 tackles, five interceptions and four clearances. His involvement in the second half of Saturday's friendly is an encouraging sign as he builds toward the new season, with his focus now shifting fully to preseason preparations under new coach Enzo Maresca.

Jack Grealish - Skips tour to rehab injury Grealish will not be part of Manchester City's preseason tour squad as he continues working individually while recovering from injury, Manchester Evening News reports.
Impact Grealish returned to preseason training last week but has been working individually rather than with the group, and that ongoing recovery has been cited as the reason for his omission from the Asia tour party. However, the injury is not his only obstacle at the club, his long-term future at City remains uncertain heading into the final year of his contract, and even fully fit, he'd face a crowded picture under head coach Enzo Maresca, with Jeremy Doku, Omar Marmoush, Antoine Semenyo, Phil Foden, and Savinho all representing alternatives in his areas of the pitch. A player of his ability could still show more given real playing time, much like he did during his Everton loan, where he showed signs of returning to form with two goals, six assists and 38 chances created across 18 starts.
