The Manchester City defender, who was expected to become first-choice in the left-back role for the large majority of the ongoing season, has been dealing with a calf problem that has ruled him out for the past few weeks.
While his City teammates are currently away on international duty, the Ukrainian full-back has remained in Manchester to continue with his recovery process in an attempt to challenge Joao Cancelo for the left-sided role in the next week.
