These are your Manchester City headlines for Sunday, July 17. City have landed in Houston and will begin their tour activities on Sunday as part of an action-filled eight days in the USA.
The tour began with the news that four key first-team players wouldn't travel, but that gives others — including the four new signings — a chance to impress Pep Guardiola for a week ahead of the new season.
A number of youngsters have travelled, too, giving a useful opportunity to show the coaching staff what they can do in a senior matchday environment.
With a heatwave warning back in the UK, City players will have been met with 35 degree temperatures in Texas when they arrived, plus the high humidity, with the potential to rise further during their stay in Houston.
