Raheem Sterling and Kevin De Bruyne were part of Manchester City's travelling party as Pep Guardiola's squad took the train to London for the Premier League opener against Arsenal.

The pair missed last week's Community Shield win over Chelsea, but returned to training this week after their extended breaks from being involved in the World Cup semi-finals.

But Guardiola confirmed this week that the pair were in 'perfect condition' upon their return, and they will both look to play a part against Arsenal.

The City boss appeared to take a near full-strength squad to London as the team were photographed boarding a train at Piccadilly on Saturday.

Club-record signing Riyad Mahrez is in line to make his Premier League debut for City and was among those travelling - as was Benjamin Mendy who only played seven Premier League games last season and Guardiola said his return will bring a new dynamic to City's play.

Phil Foden, who impressed during pre-season and did not look out of place at Wembley, was also pictured as part of the squad and could feature.

Not caught by photographers was David Silva , who missed the Community Shield win. Likewise, Fabian Delph, Brahim Diaz and Oleksandr Zinchenko were also not pictured.
