Kyle Walker has been included in Manchester City’s travelling squad for their Champions League tie with Shakhtar Donetsk, despite missing Saturday’s 5-0 win against Burnley.
The England international was an injury doubt after being left out of the Premier League clash with Sean Dyche’s side.
But that was more of a precautionary measure from Pep Guardiola ahead of a crucial run of fixtures.
Walker will be needed for Tuesday’s game in Kharkiv, with City needing to make up ground after their defeat to Lyon in their opening group game.
The champions then travel to Tottenham on Monday.
Kevin de Bruyne also boarded the flight to Kharkiv from Manchester airport on Sunday after making his comeback from knee ligament damage on Saturday, but Fabian Delph, who has been sidelined for over a month was not included.
City’s travelling squad for Shakhtar:
Kyle Walker, Vincent Kompany, John Stones, Raheem Sterling, Sergio Aguero, Aymeric Laporte, Kevin De Bruyne, Leroy Sane, Bernardo Silva, David Silva, Benjamin Mendy, Fernandinho, Riyad Mahrez, Nicolas Otamendi, Ederson, Daniel Grimshaw, Gabriel Jesus, Oleksandr Zinchenko, Phil Foden, Aro Muric, Brahim Diaz
