Kevin De Bruyne named in Man City's FIFA Club World Cup squad
Manchester City midfielder Kevin De Bruyne has been named in the club's squad for the 2023 FIFA Club World Cup in Saudi Arabia after almost four months out injured. De Bruyne hasn't played for City since suffering a hamstring injury 23 minutes into the Premier League season opener against Burnley way back on 11 August.

Whether he actually gets any minutes at the tournament remains to be seen as it could merely be a way to ensure he still gets a medal if City go on to lift the trophy as expected.
