This match will be significant for Khusanov, who will become the first player from Uzbekistan to play in the English Premier League.
Together with Khusanov, Egyptian forward Omar Marmoush will also make his debut, having joined Manchester City as well. Both substitutions are aimed at strengthening the team for this crucial match.
As a reminder, Abduqodir Khusanov transferred to Manchester City from the French club Lens for 40 million euros, plus bonuses.
