MANCHESTER, England (AP) — Phil Foden and defender Nathan Ake have been ruled out of Manchester City’s game at Crystal Palace on Saturday. City manager Pep Guardiola provided injury updates and the list includes defender Manuel Akanji. Guardiola says “Nathan is out. Manu we’ll see.” Foden had bronchitis and missed Wednesday’s match against Nottingham Forest — a 3-0 victory that snapped City’s seven-game winless run. Guardiola says Foden is “not ready.” Ake and Akanji both started on Wednesday and picked up injuries.
