Man City duo not involved in training session ahead of Champions League clash

Jeremy Doku and Nico O’Reilly were both absent from Manchester City team training ahead of their Champions League clash with Porto.

The pair did not take part in the session as City continued their preparations for Tuesday’s European fixture in Portugal.

Their absences will raise doubts over whether either player will be available for the game, though that is yet to be confirmed.

Doku is yet to play in the Premier League this season, while O’Reilly was forced to pull out of the starting line-up ahead of Saturday’s win against Coventry with a back problem.

City have made a perfect start to their Premier League campaign, winning each of their opening three matches, and will be hoping to carry that form into Europe.

Maresca is expected to provide a further update on Doku and O’Reilly when he speaks to the media ahead of the game.
