Manchester City will be without Kevin De Bruyne for this weekend’s Premier League visit of Arsenal after the Belgian suffered an injury during the international break.

De Bruyne was substituted in last week’s Nations League fixture against England and, although Belgium boss Roberto Martinez insisted the measure was a “precaution”, the playmaker was an early withdrawal from the national squad.
