Putellas debut as London City beat Man Utd in opener
Alexia Putellas makes her London City Lionesses debut as the home side beat Manchester United 2-1 in the first game of the Women's Super League season.
John Stones, the England international and Manchester City teammate of Kevin De Bruyne, is expected to make his first Serie A start for Inter Milan against his former club Napoli. Multiple Italian sports outlets predict Stones will start alongside Cristian Chivu, marking his debut in full competitive action for the Nerazzurri. Stones has featured on the bench in Inter’s past two Serie A matches, but this will be his first start since joining the club on a free transfer from Manchester City earlier this summer.
Fellow England players Djed Spence and Curtis Jones might also get a chance, but they are not expected to start the match. Meanwhile, Napoli will be missing star midfielder Scott McTominay, who is preparing for a minor heart procedure. De Bruyne, Stones's former Manchester City teammate, is likely to be involved for Napoli, with Antonio Vergara possibly starting in the midfield instead of McTominay.
