What Irish TV channel is Wolves vs Man City on? Kick-off time, live stream, team news and odds for Premier League clash
Guardiola's men have been blighted by injuries OPENING DAY What Irish TV channel is Wolves vs Man City on? Kick-off time, live stream, team news and odds for Premier League clash MANCHESTER CITY kick off their pursuit of the Premier League title when they face Wolves this weekend. Pep Guardiola's men are aiming to reclaim the crown that they lost to Liverpool last season, having won it the previous four years in a row. Here is everything you need to know about the match. When is it on and what time is kick-off? Wolves vs Manchester City takes place at the Molineux on Saturday, June 16. Kick-off is at 5:30pm and rounds out the first Saturday of the new season. It also bookends the first full day of TV matches, with Aston Villa vs Newcastle and Tottenham Hotspur vs Burnley also being televised. Where can I watch it? The game is being shown on Sky Sports Main Event, with coverage getting underway at 5pm. Those seeking to stream the game can do so through a subscription to NowTV. What is the latest team news? Pep Guardiola said City will be without Josko Gvardiol and Savinho at Wolves on Saturday. Croatian defender Gvardiol joins compatriot Mateo Kovacic on the sidelines, who Guardiola last week said will likely be unavailable until September. Meanwhile, Savinho is set to miss out after picking up an injury in last week's pre-season trip to Palermo. However, he expects Phil Foden and Rodri, who both also sat out the game in Sicily, to travel for the game. As for Wolves, Vitor Pereira revealed Yerson Mosquera is fit enough to feature in the squad but not start against Man City. David Moller Wolfe, who played his first 45 minutes for Wolves against Celta Vigo last weekend, is ready for a competitive debut. Fer Lopez and Jhon Arias also in line for their bows, while, Fabio Silva is still working his way back to fitness and won't feature. What are the odds? Man City are valued at 8/15 to pick up the three points, while Wolves are out to 13/2. The draw is priced at 4/1. What has been said in the build-up? Pep Guardiola has been boosted by the return of Rodri - but insisted he won't rush him back. The Ballon d'Or winner suffered a serious knee injury last September and made one cameo at the end of the last Premier League season. His boss said: 'It's a difficult injury because they say that the year after, you always have some muscular problems, so we try desperately to avoid it but it's difficult to know exactly how many games and minutes he needs. 'He's desperate to play. We need his ambition, his personality, quality. He was named last season the best player in the world. 'That's why it's really important to have him back. To see him back in the locker room made me smile, he's so close. 'He's close to coming back for a few minutes then take one day rest. To read that is what is the most difficult to know what's best for him.'

Man City eyeing shock cut-price transfer for Donnarumma as he claims PSG have forced him out in emotional statement
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) MANCHESTER CITY are eyeing a cut-price move for Gianluigi Donnarumma. But only if Brazilian Ederson is tempted by Galatasaray's Turkish delights. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 8 Man City are lining up Gianluigi Donnarumma after the ace confirmed his PSG exit Credit: AFP 8 Galatasaray are looking to sign Ederson as he enters the last year of his deal Credit: Alamy 8 Pep Guardiola has some reservations over Donnarumma's ball-playing abilities Credit: PA 8 Luis Enrique was blasted by the Italian stopper in a scathing statement Credit: Reuters Donnarumma, 26, is available for around £40m from the European champions after a contract fall-out, although he wants a 50 per cent rise on his current £210,000 per week salary. On Tuesday night he vented his frustration at being forced out by Luis Enrique. Donnarumma posted on Instagram: 'Unfortunately, someone has decided that I can no longer be part of the group and contribute to the team's success. I am disappointed and disheartened. 'I hope to have the opportunity to look the fans at the Parc des Princes in the eyes one more time and say goodbye as it should be done.' READ MORE IN FOOTBALL CUP SHOCK Carabao Cup tie called off just minutes before kick off after power cut PSG boss Enrique admitted: 'I had to take a very difficult decision. It was not easy. He is one of the best keepers out there. He is an even better man. 'But we were looking for a different profile of a keeper and once again, it is very difficult to make this type of decision. 'I understand questions about Donnarumma but I want to make the team better. I think we have been quite clear. 'My decision is the decision and I have been supported by my club.' BEST FREE BETS AND BETTING SIGN UP OFFERS Pep Guardiola is thought to harbour some question marks over the former Milan shot-stopper's ability with his feet and set-piece vulnerability. Those attributes were critical in his re-signing of England gloveman James Trafford in a £27m move from Burnley. Gianluigi Donnarumma bursts into tears on pitch after PSG star's challenge causes Jamal Musiala horror injury Donnarumma's angry statement in full "TO the special Paris fans. "From the first day I arrived, I gave everything – on and off the pitch – to earn my place and defend the goal of Paris Saint-Germain. "Unfortunately, someone has decided that I can no longer be part of the group and contribute to the team's success. I am disappointed and disheartened. "I hope to have the opportunity to look the fans at the Parc des Princes in the eyes one more time and say goodbye as it should be done. "If that doesn't happen, I want you to know that your support and affection mean the world to me, and I will never forget it. "I will always carry with me the memory of all the emotions, the magical nights, and of you, who made me feel at home. "To my teammates – my second family – thank you for every battle, every laugh, every moment we shared. You will always be my brothers. "Playing for this club and living in this city has been an immense honour. Thank you, Paris." 8 But with the Istanbul outfit seeking to prise Ederson away from the Etihad, City are ready to think again about Donnarumma, 26, if need be. While City say they have not been contacted by the Turkish side, Galatasaray are keen to see if Ederson, who has just 12 months left on his contract, can be persuaded away from the Prem. It had been expected that Ederson, 32 next week and who has been at City since 2017, was planning to run down the final year of his Etihad deal and be available on a free transfer next summer. That suggests Galatasaray would have to table a huge offer to make him change his mind and walk away from that potential pay-day. 8 TRANSFER NEWS LIVE - KEEP UP WITH ALL THE LATEST FROM A BUSY SUMMER WINDOW 8 PSG have already replaced Donnarumma with Lucas Chevalier Credit: Alamy 8 City re-signed James Trafford from Burnley earlier in the summer Credit: PA But if the South American does ask City to let him leave, Donnarumma would come back into the equation - with Guardiola's side looking like the only Prem option left on the table. Both Chelsea and Manchester United have made it clear they are not interested in pursuing a deal for the Italian, with the Stamford Bridge outfit pledging confidence in Robert Sanchez after his Club World Cup heroics. At Old Trafford, Andre Onana has been given assurances that he will start the campaign as Ruben Amorim's first choice, with United insisting that their remaining transfer priorities are elsewhere than in the keeping department. Donnarumma was left out of PSG's squad for tonight's Uefa Super Cup Final with Spurs, with the French champions having already landed Lille's Bruno Chevalier as his replacement. It leaves Donnarumma waiting for a buyer to come in with the Italian seemingly willing to sit it out until the final hours of the summer window before making a decision about his future.

Jack Grealish on verge of Everton loan move from Manchester City
MANCHESTER CITY HAVE agreed a season-long loan deal with Everton for winger Jack Grealish, the PA news agency understands. Grealish, not included in City's 27-man squad for this summer's Club World Cup in the United States, is expected to undergo a medical with the Merseysiders on Monday. Advertisement The 29-year-old reportedly earns £300,000-per-week (€347,000) having joined City from Aston Villa for a then-record British transfer fee of £100 million €116m in August 2021. Grealish made his last appearance for Pep Guardiola's side as a late substitute in the 3-1 home win against Bournemouth in their penultimate league game last season. He had dropped down the pecking order under Guardiola, making just seven league starts in total last season, and was an unused substitute in the FA Cup final defeat to Crystal Palace. Everton launch the new campaign at newly-promoted Leeds next Monday before playing their first Premier League game at their new Hill Dickinson Stadium against Brighton on 24 August. The Toffees signed midfielder Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall from Chelsea for a fee of around £28m (€32m) last week and Grealish would be the Merseysiders' sixth summer signing following the previous arrivals of Charly Alcaraz, Thierno Barry, Mark Travers and Adam Aznou.
