Manchester City defender Mateja Nastasic, who was out injured and not expected to return to action until September, could be in the squad that travels to Cardiff City on Sunday for the club’s second Premier League match of the season.
With Vincent Kompany ruled out for one month due to an injury, the return of the Serbian defender is encouraging news for City supporters.
