Kevin De Bruyne has returned to Manchester City after being withdrawn from Belgium's clash withIceland on Wednesday.

There were fears De Bruyne picked up an injury and could be in doubt for Saturday's meeting with Arsenal.

But Belgium boss Roberto Martinez has moved to allay those fears, stating De Bruyne was withdrawn as a precautionary measure.

"I would not say that Kevin is injured," Martinez told reporters when asked for a fitness update on De Bruyne.

"He said he felt something. It is too early to know what he has, but he did not feel 100 per cent. It was rather a precautionary change."
