Long Layoff for City's Gabriel Jesus

Manchester City have a major injury crisis up front, after Gabriel Jesus was ruled out for at least a month with a muscle injury.

This leaves City without both of their first-team strikers, as Sergio Aguero is still recovering from knee surgery. 

This means that boss Pep Guardiola may turn to youth players like Liam Delap for tonight's EPL match against Leicester. 

Meanwhile, Riyad Mahrez has been cleared to return to action for City. 

The midfielder had to delay his return to training this season, after testing positive for Covid-19.
