Pep Guardiola has given update on Kevin De Bruyne’s injury condition.

The player picked up an injury in the match against Bournemouth.

Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola has insisted that midfielder Kevin De Bruyne will be out of the side for a while with a hamstring injury which he picked up in the match against Bournemouth. The Belgian midfield ace was substituted in the first half stoppage time due to the injury and now it has been confirmed that he will have to stay sidelined for some time.

Speaking to the media after the match, Guardiola said, “Kevin will be out for a while with a muscular problem – hamstring.”

Updating on the other injury conditions, he added, “John I think is more precaution. We didn’t take a risk – we’ll see tomorrow. But I think we’ve played 25 games in 93 days, one every three days, so it’s a physiological issue. The body is not able to recover so of course sometimes the muscle says ‘hello, that’s enough’. But everybody’s committed and we’ll wait for Kevin to come back.”

The Citizens have gone onto take the pole position with their 1-0 win against Bournemouth in the Premier League table and will be keeping a keen eye on Liverpool’s next match which is the Merseyside derby against Everton.
