Stones (thigh) has no timeline to return, coach Pep Guardiola said in the press conference, according to City Xtra. "No idea [when he will return]. He's not ready for the next games."

Stones missed all the games since early December due to a thigh injury and still has no timeline to return. The versatile defender will likely spend some more weeks on the sidelines, but his absence will not impact the starting XI since he has mainly been a rotational player when fit this season.
