Midfielder of Manchester City, England’s Premier League unit Fernandinju Due to a leg injury caused by a UEFA Champions League game, it will not be possible to go on the field for four to six weeks, the team’s head coach Žuzeps Gvardiola revealed.

The Brazilian midfielder on Wednesday in the UEFA Champions League match against “Porto” left only in the 85th minute, but in the fourth minute of the compensation time he left the field forced due to injury. Fernandinju went straight to the locker room after the injury.

He has joined several other injured City players, Kevin de Brujn, Gabriebl Hesus, Neitan Ake, Benjamin Mendy and Eimerika Laport.

“That’s bad news,” Guardiola said of Fernandini’s injury. “I think he won’t be able to play for four to six weeks. It’s a big loss for us at this level of play, but that’s the situation. “

The team reports that de Brujne and Laporta will resume training with the team on Thursday, but it is unknown whether the two footballers will line up in Saturday’s Premier League duel against Westham United.

Gvardiola emphasized that the team must complete at least three games in a little over a week, so the return of each football player to training is assessed with a plus sign.

The City started the new season of the Champions League with a 3: 1 victory over Porto, but the English Premier League team finished in 11th place with seven points in four games.
