Manchester City will be without Rúben Dias for up to six weeks with a hamstring injury, exacerbating Pep Guardiola’s defensive injury crisis and leading the head coach to admit the club may enter the transfer market. The Crystal Palace captain, Marc Guéhi, is of interest.
City are contemplating a bid for Guéhi and are close to completing a move for the forward Antoine Semenyo, who is due for a medical on Thursday after playing a final game for Bournemouth on Wednesday at home against Tottenham. City have agreed to pay Semenyo’s almost £65m release clause.
