New signing\u00a0Owen Hargreaves<\/a> will not be included in\u00a0Manchester City<\/a>‘s Champions League<\/a> squad, according to the Daily Mail<\/em>.
<\/span><\/p>\n


The midfielder moved to the Etihad Stadium on a free transfer on deadline day after rivals Manchester United opted to release him earlier in the summer.<\/p>\n

City boss Roberto Mancini believes the injury-prone former Bayern Munich man needs to regain his fitness before he is ready to return to first-team action.<\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

But Hargreaves believes he will soon be ready to hit the ground running for his new club.<\/span><\/p>\n

“It’s important that you get back into a rhythm of playing football and I haven’t done that for a while. There are tons of games to come this season in various competitions,” he said.<\/span><\/p>\n

“I like to measure myself against the best and I’ve always taken on challenges – I left Canada for Germany as a kid, I’ve left comfortable situations.”<\/span><\/p>\n

Hargreaves added: “I’ve never not played in the Champions League, it’s pretty much been standard for me every season.<\/span><\/p>\n

“It’s a fantastic group of players here, and I hope that I’ll be a good addition to these guys to help out.”<\/span><\/p>\n

City’s squad for the Champions League will be announced on Friday, with left-back Wayne Bridge also set to miss out.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
