Given looks all set for return to action with City
The 34-year-old Republic of Ireland international has been absent from Roberto Mancini’s side since dislocating his shoulder against Arsenal towards the end of last season. But the shot-stopper is now hoping to resume his role as No 1 for the Blues — either in Atlanta or in Saturday’s clash with Inter Milan.
“I have not spoken to the manager yet but I am hoping to play a part in the game against Club America and if not then at the weekend,’’ Given, who has been named the Ireland squad for the friendly with Argentina said.
