Pablo Zabaleta faces four weeks on the sidelines after
damaging his knee ligament in training.
The Argentine international has yet to feature for the
Premier League leaders, who have won all two of their
matches this season by same 3-0 margin, but will now hope
to return in time for the start of the Uefa Champions
League season in mid-September.
“It happened in training,” the Argentina defender told the
club’s website . “It’s the first time in 12 years of senior
football that I’ve ever been injured like this so it’s a blow,
especially at the start of the season.”
City boss Manuel Pellegrini confirmed on Friday that
summer signing, Fabian Delph, is back in training, as well
as Gael Clichy.

“Delph returned to full training on Wednesday and the rest
of the squad have no problems,” said the Chilean boss.
Pellegrini also confirmed that Nicolas Otamendi, signed from
Valencia on a five-year deal worth £32m, is unlikely to
start at Everton on Sunday.
