The first-team flight is being sent to an alternate airport after flying to London on the eve of the Premier League clash
The first-team squad flew to the capital on Friday before City faced West Ham United at lunchtime in the Premier League.
However, their flight had to be diverted from City Airport to London Stansted, which was more than 30 miles away.
Tor understands that there was a problem with the aircraft’s anti-slip system, which meant it couldn’t land at an airport with a short runway.
The team had a slight delay before traveling to the hotel prior to the clash on Saturday.
It goes without saying that there was no error on the part of the airport, but the flight should not have been diverted if it was to land at a major airport.
A City team flight came off the runway at the start of Norwich in 2016.
The city traveled with no injured players Gabriel Jesus, Fernandinho and Benjamin Mendy.
Kevin De Bruyne and Aymeric Laporte returned to training on Thursday and Pep Guardiola wasn’t sure they could face the Hammers again.
“Some of them will be [involved]“He said at his pre-game press conference. “Some of them, no. You will know tomorrow. ”
A win could put City in third place in the Premier League and over Liverpool after playing the same number of games.
City has won, scored 22 goals and conceded only once on every visit to the London stadium.
But Guardiola is expecting a tough game against a team strengthened by their comeback against Tottenham when they drew 3-3 after conceding three goals in the first 20 minutes.
“The past is the past, we have good results,” said the city boss. “What we saw against Tottenham, West Ham always have good players. They play very well against Tottenham, not only in the final minutes, they also play with a lot of personality when they are 3-0 down.
“You are in good shape. In any case, you are in a good moment. ”
After their trip to West Ham, City have two more away games, playing in the Champions League against Marseille on Tuesday night, followed by Sheffield United on Saturday.
“The schedule is completely crazy for everyone, especially the teams that play in Europe,” said Guardiola.
“At the moment I don’t know my selection. We’re playing at 12.30pm tomorrow, so not much relaxation. Today the guys trained really well and tonight we will decide. ”
