Kevin De Bruyne is not too badly injured, but he is still in danger of missing out on an upcoming series of Man City games.
De Bruyne is injured after a sprint attempt against Villa
In the match against Aston Villa, De Bruyne had to leave the field after 57 minutes due to a hamstring injury. This is considered the consequence of the midfielder having to play continuously without rest during the past few months.
De Bruyne’s injury level has not been announced by Man City, but the British media confirmed that the 29-year-old midfielder will have to take a break from playing for at least 2 to 3 weeks. This is not a serious injury for De Bruyne, but it was enough to make him miss three Premier League games against West Brom, Sheffield United and Burnley.
This can be considered very bad news for Man City. For a long time, De Bruyne has been considered an irreplaceable star of the Etihad team. This season, the Belgian midfielder has 3 goals and 10 assists in the Premier League, making a great contribution to helping Pep-team get out of the crisis and rise to the top of the table.
Not only that, De Bruyne is also in danger of being absent from the great battle against Liverpool at Anfield on February 7. If this happens, Man City will have a big problem in the championship race.
In addition to De Bruyne, Man City also continued to be without Sergio Aguero’s service after the striker suffered Covid-19.
