Man City defender Ruben Dias has been ruled out for up to six weeks with a hamstring injury.

The Portuguese international was taken off after picking up the issue in the final 10 minutes of the 1-1 draw against Chelsea on Sunday.

Dias could miss up to 11 fixtures, including the Manchester derby and the two legs of the Carabao Cup semi-final against Newcastle.

The defender could make his comeback slightly earlier than that, with a more optimistic recovery time of around a month, but hamstrings take time to heal.

Expected Return Date – Saturday 21st February vs Newcastle (h)

Oscar Bobb

The Norwegian also pulled his hamstring when he played against Brentford in the Carabao Cup quarter-final last month.

Bobb was forced off in the first half, and manager Pep Guardiola has not given an estimate as to when he could make his return.

Expected Return Date – Unknown
