De Bruyne out for four to six weeks

Published on: 22 January 2021

Manchester City midfielder Kevin de Bruyne will be sidelined for between four to six weeks with a hamstring injury, says manager Pep Guardiola.

The Belgium playmaker, 29, suffered the injury during Wednesday's 4-0 Premier League win against Aston Villa.

His absence will start with Saturday's FA Cup fourth round tie at Cheltenham.

De Bruyne could miss up to 10 matches, including the Champions League last-16 first-leg tie with Borussia Monchengladbach on 24 February.
