Manchester City will face Newcastle in the second leg of the EFL Cup semi-final tomorrow night. According to the latest report from the Manchester Evening News, due to rule restrictions, Guéhi will be unable to play in the EFL Cup.
Reports indicate that Guéhi will be ineligible for the remainder of Manchester City's League Cup campaign. While the competition rules have been modified this season to allow players to represent multiple clubs, there is a time limit – players must be available to play for their second club before the first leg of the semi-final.
Since Guéhi joined Manchester City after the first leg against Newcastle, he is ineligible for the second leg. If Manchester City advance to the final, Semenyo and Max Alleyne will be eligible, but Guéhi will still be unavailable.
Nypan returns from his loan spell at Middlesbrough and is eligible to play for Manchester City. While he is unlikely to make an immediate appearance against Newcastle, he is eligible because he did not play for Middlesbrough in the League Cup.
