Manchester Metropolis midfielder Kevin De Bruyne can be sidelined for “three or 4 months” due to a recurrence of his hamstring damage, supervisor Pep Guardiola stated Tuesday.
Guardiola stated it was a “critical” damage and a call must be made about whether or not De Bruyne requires surgical procedure.
De Bruyne got here off with the damage halfway by the primary half of Metropolis’s opening Premier League recreation, a 3-0 win at Burnley on Friday.
It’s the similar downside that compelled De Bruyne to be substituted through the Champions League closing win in opposition to Inter Milan in June.
Guardiola was talking a day earlier than Metropolis performs Sevilla within the UEFA Tremendous Cup — a match between the winners of final season’s Champions League and Europa League.
