Blow for Manchester City as injured Kompany faces another spell on sidelines

22 November 2016 17:53

Manchester City captain Vincent Kompany is facing another spell on the sidelines with a knee injury.

Kompany was substituted after a collision with goalkeeper Claudio Bravo during the first half of Saturday's Premier League victory at Crystal Palace.

The 30-year-old suffered a concussion in the clash but manager Pep Guardiola has confirmed that the knee injury sustained in the same incident is now of greater concern.

"He is injured, he will be out for the next weeks," said Guardiola at a press conference in Dusseldorf ahead of his side's Champions League clash with Borussia Monchengladbach on Wednesday.
