City boss Guardiola gives Ederson and Jesus update

Pep Guardiola is yet to rule Ederson and Gabriel Jesus in or out of his plans for Manchester City’s Champions League clash with Club Brugge on Tuesday, but a couple of Brazil internationals are already in Belgium.

On the back of World Cup qualifying duty with their country, two South American stars were advised against returning to England where they would be forced to quarantine for 10 days.

They were instead told to report early for continental competition, with Guardiola and the rest of the Sky Blues squad set to jet out and join them on Monday evening.

Asked for updates on Ederson and Jesus ahead of a meeting with Club Brugge, Guardiola told reporters: "We see the protocols, they couldn't land here unless they isolate [for] 10 days.

“We will join them tonight in the hotel. Tomorrow they do the preparations, maybe play, maybe not. They come back with us to Manchester for the routine daily life."
