Manchester City manager Josep Guardiola said at his pre-match press conference ahead of their trip to Chelsea on August 18. That rising star winger Oscar Bobb, who has a broken leg will need surgery and will be out for four months. While the national team squad for the summer tournament. Led by Rodri, will miss the game and the rest may be substitutes.
Bobb suffered an injury in training in midweek, initially indicating a broken leg. But no further details were given, with Guardiola now revealing the Norwegian may not play until 2024 สมัคร UFABET
“It’s really unfortunate, it happened during training. I think the operation will be at noon on Friday,” Guardiola said.
“We want him to come back as soon as possible. But it will take 3-4 months. We feel sorry for him.”
“There may or may not be a replacement. Let’s wait and see. I am very satisfied with the current squad. So I cannot answer the question about additional players.”
Another issue Pep revealed
was the absence of Euro 2024 champion midfielder Rodri for the trip to Stamford Bridge. While England players John Stones, Phil Foden or Kyle Walker. As well as the European Championship team are out of the starting line-up due to late joining.
“Rodri has no chance to play in this game. I haven’t even seen him.”
“He feels good. Let’s see how he feels when he practices outdoors.”
“The national team players who joined late still don’t know what to do because they’ve only had 2-3 training sessions.”
“When I came back, I was fit and in good shape. Let’s wait and see the lineup for the match day. I’m sure my name will be ready to use, but it won’t be the full 90 minutes.”
That leaves Manchester City squad for the pre – season tour of the US with Erling Braut Haaland , Ederson Moraes , Jack Grealish or Rico Lewis all likely to be in the squad.
