Every word from Pep Guardiola press conference on Jack Grealish and Man City team news vs Spurs

Pep Guardiola provided an injury update on four Manchester City players ahead of the Premier League visit of Tottenham.

Guardiola faced the media this afternoon to preview the Spurs clash, with City full of confidence on the back of their big 5-0 Champions League last-16 first leg win at Sporting in the week.

Kyle Walker will be available after being suspended for that game, while Guardiola offered an update on the status of Gabriel Jesus, Jack Grealish, Zack Steffen and Cole Palmer, who all missed the trip with injury.
