Guardiola said: \u201cRuben is out. Aymer [Laporte], we will see today at the training session.\u201d<\/p>\n

On his part, Potter said goalkeeper Edouard Mendy, who sustained a shoulder injury while representing Senegal at the 2022 FIFA World Cup, will not play against Guardiola\u2019s side.<\/p>\n

Potter said of Mendy, \u201cHe\u2019s been training a little bit more than he was.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe\u2019s not fully fit at the moment, but hopefully, in the next week or so, he might make some progress.\u201d<\/p>\n
