Manchester City's Antoine Semenyo Out for Eight Weeks
Antoine Semenyo, a forward for Manchester City, is expected to be out of action for up to eight weeks due to a leg injury he sustained during the team's 3-2 victory against Ipswich. Manager Enzo Maresca announced this on Monday, ahead of City's Champions League match against AEK Athens at the Etihad Stadium.
Maresca indicated that the scan results for Semenyo were “not as bad as we expected.” While he expressed concern over Semenyo's absence, he was optimistic about the fitness of other players, including Erling Haaland, Mateo Kovacic, Matheus Nunes, and Nico O’Reilly. Haaland, who was seen limping after the Ipswich game, may still be available for the upcoming match.
Maresca noted that losing Semenyo is unfortunate, but the team has other options to explore if necessary. He is the first manager to win their opening seven Premier League games at a new club.
