Manchester City will be without defender Ruben Dias for up to six weeks, manager Pep Guardiola has said.
The centre-back was forced off with a hamstring injury in Sunday’s 1-1 Premier League draw against Chelsea.
The news comes after it was confirmed on Monday that fellow defender Josko Gvardiol was facing a lengthy lay-off with a broken leg.
They join another centre-back, John Stones, on what is now a significant list of absentees at the Etihad Stadium.
“It’s hamstring, four to six weeks,” Guardiola said of Dias at a press conference to preview Wednesday’s clash with Brighton.
