international clearance for Esteban Cambiasso
before Sunday's Premier League clash with Arsenal
at the King Power Stadium.
Former Argentina international Cambiasso signed a
one-year deal with City on Thursday after becoming
a free agent following his release from Inter Milan
after a 10-year spell with the Serie A giants.
Definitely ruled out of the game with the Gunners
are midfielder Matty James (shin) and defender
Matthew Upson (foot), otherwise manager Nigel
Pearson has a full squad to choose from.
Arsenal midfielder Aaron Ramsey returns from
suspension.
Midfielder Mikel Arteta continues to be sidelined
with an ankle problem and goalkeeper David Ospina
is close to completing his recovery from a thigh
strain.
Striker Olivier Giroud (tibia), full-back Kieran Gibbs
(hamstring) and winger Theo Walcott (knee) are in
the treatment room.
