JAKARTA - Manchester City manager, Josep Guardiola, revealed the condition of his three mainstay players in a doubtful situation ahead of Manchester United's FA Cup final, Saturday, June 3.

The three players are Kevin De Bruyne, Ruben Dias, and Jack Grealish. Ruben Dias is known to have missed City in the last two matches.

This condition was not only experienced by Dias but also happened to Grealish who was also absent when his team appeared against Brighton & Hove Albion and Brentford. Meanwhile, De Bruyne did not strengthen City when he lost 0-1 to Brentford.

Guardiola berharap ketiga pemainnya bisa fit untuk pertandingan melawan MU di Stadion Wembley pada akhir pekan ini. Meskipun Guardiola sendiri tidak bisa memberikan jaminan soal kesiapan ketiganya.

"We had four or five players with minor problems, not serious injuries, but they were injured," Guardiola said.

"Ruben (Dias) didn't train for 10 days, Jack Grealish was the same. After the match against Brighton, Kevin (De Bruyne) felt something the same as he felt before a few weeks ago. At that time he couldn't play several matches," he continued.

If all three names of players had to miss the match against MU, it would be a big loss. Because Dias, De Bruyne, and Grealish are players who have played a big role in City's success.

This season City has confirmed the English Premier League title. However, there are already two final matches waiting for The Citizens, namely Manchester United's opponents in the FA Cup and the match against Inter Milan in the Champions League.
