Ouch! A Big Blow for Manchester City: Kevin De Bruyne Out for 3-4 Months
Straight up, here's the skinny on the unexpected setback Manchester City's facing.
In a brutal twist of fate, Manchester City's star midfielder, Kevin De Bruyne, has been dealt a three to four-month injury layoff. Coach Pep Guardiola announced the sad news at a press conference leading up to the European Super Cup match. Seems like De Bruyne sustained an injury during Manchester City's first Premier League match against Burnley last Friday, and a surgery might be necessary to get him back in top form.
Docs say De Bruyne's got a partial tear on his calf muscle, and we'll know more about the need for surgery in the coming days. Guardiola's quote: "It's serious, mate. We've gotta decide on the operation real soon. But yeah, De Bruyne's out for at least three or four months."
Last season, during the Champions League finale, De Bruyne also got sidelined by an injury, forcing him to call it quits early. That match ended with "The Citizens" edging out Milan's "Inter" 1:0.
Joining Manchester City back in August 2015, De Bruyne made the switch from German "Wolfsburg" to "Etihad" for a cool €76 million. Over his five-year stint, he's played a whopping 358 games for Manchester City in all competitions, racking up 96 goals and 153 assists.
