Prior to their Premier League matchup against Newcastle on Saturday, February 15, at 17:00, Man City is battling injury concerns.

Manuel Akanji will have surgery on Saturday and will likely be out for eight to ten weeks, City boss Pep Guardiola disclosed. – He has an injury to his groin. His efforts this season have been outstanding, and he and Nathan Ake have performed in challenging positions. I hope he recovers quickly. His body spoke for itself, and we were lacking in players in that area.

What about Jack Grealish, who was brought on as a substitute early in the Real Madrid game?

His predicament is not as dire as Akanji’s. I don’t think he’ll be able to play against Newcastle tomorrow.

Nico Gonzalez, who cost £60 million to sign after leaving Porto, had a difficult start after getting hurt in his first game.

Was it a difficult debut for him? He was hurt, so it wasn’t a difficult debut. If he plays terribly, it’s a rough start, but that’s not the case. He wasn’t fully fit for the game against Real Madrid, but he is getting better every day. In the coming hours, we’ll evaluate his fitness,” Guardiola said.
