Pep Guardiola confirms Jeremy Doku injury blow as Man City winger ruled out 'for a while'

Premier League

Arsenal

Manchester City

<p>Doku has not featured for City in their last two matches against Paris Saint-Germain and <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/man-city-player-ratings-vs-chelsea-erling-haaland-rediscovers-mojo-calamitous-abdukodir-khusanov-brutal-premier-league-baptism-of-fire/bltfe0ca1c099e40248" target="_blank">Chelsea</a> after picking up an injury during the club's 6-0 demolition of Ipswich Town. Manager Guardiola has now revealed that the Belgian is facing a lengthy spell out and will miss the must-win Champions League clash against Club Brugge and is doubtful for City's crucial Premier League clash against Arsenal at the weekend.</p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>Providing an update on Doku's condition, the manager told reporters: "A while. I don’t know how much. But a while. He will not be ready for Wednesday for sure, I don’t think. For Arsenal, we’ll see."</p>

WHAT PEP GUARDIOLA SAID

<p>While Doku's injury comes as a big blow for the English champions, star defender John Stones' return to action after more than a month was a huge boost for the club. The England international came on as a second-half substitute <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/pep-guardiola-abdukodir-khusanov-horrific-man-city-debut-starting-xi/blt1b510c7053e5f77c" target="_blank">replacing debutant Abdukodir Khusanov</a> against the Blues.</p><p></p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>In Doku's absence, another newcomer Omar Marmoush is likely to take his place on the left side of the attack against Brugge. Along with Khusanov, the Egyptian too made his debut for the Cityzens last Saturday.</p>
