Pep Guardiola should be able to update on the extent of Oscar Bobb's injury when he speaks to the media this lunchtime.

The Norway midfielder suffered a fracture to his leg in training earlier this week.

City were considering whether to send Bobb to Barcelona for surgery.

Given Julian Alvarez has now joined Atletico Madrid, Guardiola must decide whether to bring in attacking replacements, which presumably extend beyond the move for West Ham's FA Youth Cup winner Divin Mubama.

Guardiola is notoriously coy about transfer talk.

He may be on safer ground talking about City's attempt to win a fifth straight title.
