Manchester City added three youngsters to their squad as they turned their attention to Sunday's derby with Manchester United.

Pep Guardiola granted his players two days off after City's win at Luton on Tuesday, with the squad returning to the City Football Academy on Friday for two days to get up to shape to face United at the Etihad.

Guardiola confirmed on Friday that Jack Grealish will be out until after the international break, having suffered a recurrence of his groin injury at Luton.

Josko Gvardiol is close to returning, but may not be back in time to face United. In their place, three familiar academy players were called up to Friday's training session.
