Man City vs Real Madrid: Probable Lineups – Star midfielder set to make first appearance since December

Manchester City take on Real Madrid in their second International Championship Cup clash in the US as part of their pre-season tour.

Star midfielder of Turkish origin has recovered from a knee ligament injury which has ruled him out of action since December.

Gundogan was included on the bench in the clash against Manchester United last week but did not make an appearance.

The 26-year-old has been named in the match squad against Real Madrid and is expected to feature.

Real have no fresh injury concerns heading into the clash.

The Spanish giants will be keen to make up for their defeat against Manchester United heading into the City clash but will have to do so without Cristiano Ronaldo.

The Portuguese international is currently on extended leave following the Confederations Cup.

The last time these two sides met Real came out on top in the Champions league.

Real progressed to the Champions League final with a 1-0 aggregate win over City.
