Cucho Hernandez Injury: Ready to play

Hernandez (nose) is available for Sunday's game against Girona, manager Manuel Pellegrini told media during Friday's pre-match press conference. "We only have Pau Lopez out due to injury, so the rest of the squad is fit and ready to play Sunday."

Hernandez underwent minor nose surgery during the international break, but it won't prevent him from playing, and he should be ready to go moving forward. Hernandez is one of the team's biggest attacking threats and has already scored five times, as well as adding two assists, in 12 starts this season.
