Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola has a massive double injury blow on his hands in the back line. Both Ruben Dias and Josko Gvardiol are set to be sidelined for some time, due to injury.

“Apparently, it doesn’t look good – we will see tomorrow,” Guardiola said yesterday.

Let’s start with Gvardiol, whom we learned earlier on today, is actually going to be sidelined for much longer than just a few weeks.

As we learned on Monday, Little Pep sustained a tibial fracture, and the situation will require surgery in order to correct it. Having that procedure will rule him out for a few months, so it is not a stretch to say that his 2025-26 season could be done.

Moving on to Dias, we don’t really know what’s going on with him as of yet, so it’s hard to say when he might be back.

He did publish this post on social media though:

So he’s going to be sidelined for awhile. As are Mateo Kovacic and Savinho for that matter. Oscar Bobb and John Stones could be back later on this month, while Nico Gonzalez might be in contention to feature against Brighton.

And then finally, Rayan Ait-Nouri and Omar Marmoush remain away at AFCON. So when you consider all of that…

Guardiola is going to have some issues in selection on Wednesday night, to say the least.
