Long-term injury absentees Gael Clichy and Fabian Delph took part in Monday morning's foggy open training session at the CFA.

There was, however, no Samir Nasri, meaning the creative duo are unlikely to travel later today.

Confirmation on who is available will be given at Manuel Pellegrini’s press conference later this evening.

Definitely out of the Blues’ crucial Champions League clash in Spain are Sergio Aguero and Pablo Zabaleta.

Look out for an exclusive training gallery on mcfc.co.uk later today.
