admin Stefan Ortega started in goal during City’s 4-3 loss against Celtic on July 24, and while several star players such as Kevin De Bruyne and Julian Alvarez remain absent from the squad due to their participation in the Euros and Copa America, Pep Guardiola still named as strong a side as possible.
Considering this, it would be surprising if the former Barcelona boss named a weakened team against AC Milan.
Rico Lewis can be expected to start at left-back, while Josh Wilson-Esbrand will likely be given another appearance at right-back.
