Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola reveals that Kevin De Bruyne will be unavailable for Wednesday's Manchester derby against Manchester United in the League Cup.

Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola has revealed that Kevin De Bruyne will be unavailable for Wednesday's Manchester derby against Manchester United in the League Cup.

The Belgian international was substituted at the interval of Sunday's 1-1 draw with Southampton with a calf problem, and Guardiola has confirmed that the attacker is now unavailable for the clash at Old Trafford.

"He had a knock on the leg and he cannot play. Hopefully [he can face] West Brom and Barcelona [but] he's a doubt even next weekend," Guardiola told reporters.

Pablo Zabaleta and Vincent Kompany are also both expected to miss out at Old Trafford, where Man City will go in search of their second win against their rivals this season.
