Manchester City forward Anthony Semenyo is expected to miss up to eight weeks of action after sustaining a knee injury, according to the club’s coaching staff.

The City coach confirmed the severity of the setback, indicating that Semenyo will be sidelined for a significant portion of the upcoming schedule. The injury is set to keep the player out of the team for approximately two months.

Despite the absence of Semenyo, the coach provided a positive update regarding the availability of striker Erling Haaland. Haaland is confirmed to be fit and ready to feature in the club’s upcoming Champions League fixture.

The Champions League match is scheduled to take place on Tuesday, offering the team an immediate opportunity to field their key attacking options.

Manchester City will now look to manage their squad depth as they navigate the congested fixture list, with the return of Semenyo not anticipated until several weeks from now.
