Man City: Enzo Maresca issues Erling Haaland and Antoine Semenyo injury updates before Brighton rematch

Maresca confirms Manchester City's first-choice squad available for Brighton rematch; only Semenyo sidelined with knee injury expected to keep him out two months.

Manchester City manager Enzo Maresca has confirmed his squad will be at full strength for Saturday's Premier League clash against Brighton at the Etihad, with the exception of Antoine Semenyo.

Maresca rotated heavily for Wednesday's Carabao Cup penalty shootout victory, resting Erling Haaland, Jeremy Doku, Josko Gvardiol, Matheus Nunes, Gianluigi Donnarumma, Enzo Fernandes and Elliot Anderson. All are now available for the weekend fixture.

Semenyo remains sidelined with a knee injury sustained against Ipswich earlier this month and is expected to miss around two months. Maresca said the winger is progressing well in recovery and doing therapy work inside the building, though it is too early to discuss a return date. Maresca warned Brighton pose a significant threat, noting their attacking prowess and aggressive approach across all positions.
