Kompany to miss Stoke game but close to Manchester City return


(Reuters) - Manchester City captain Vincent Kompany will miss Saturday's Premier League match at Stoke City but he has recovered from a groin injury and will be fit for next week's Champions League opener and the Manchester derby.

The centre back, sidelined since picking up the problem in his team's opening league game of the season against Newcastle United last month, is one of five players to be ruled out of the trip to former City boss Mark Hughes's Stoke.
