Pep Guardiola confirms Sergio Aguero, Fernandinho returns

Guardiola: 'Aguero, Fernandinho available'

Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola has confirmed that Sergio Aguero and Fernandinho are both available for Wednesday night's Premier League clash away to West Ham United.

Aguero missed Man City's 3-0 win over Crystal Palace in the FA Cup at the weekend with a "small problem", while Fernandinho has been absent from the team's last four matches due to a suspension.

"[Aguero's] trained with the team. He is ready," Guardiola, who also revealed that there would be no late signings on transfer deadline day, told reporters.

"[Fernandinho's] so important, we play a lot of games without him. I am happy he's back. He's important for us. The idea is the same with him in the side. He's not aggressive. He's a tough intense player like English football is. He is one of the nicest guys I've met.

"What happened against Chelsea we have talked a lot about. What happened after happens many, many times. We accept the ban, don't complain, but he's not aggressive, he's honest."

Man City are currently fifth in the Premier League table - 12 points behind league leaders Chelsea.
