Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola announced that forward Jeremy Doku will be missing for an unspecified period due to injury, affecting his participation in key matches against Club Brugge and Arsenal. Doku has performed well recently with three goals and three assists but was absent against Paris Saint-Germain and Chelsea. The team’s depth allows for a temporary cover, but with ongoing defensive injury issues, new signing Abdukodir Khusanov faced challenges in his debut. Guardiola expressed concern about Khusanov's preparedness and the overall injury situation affecting the squad's performance.
"A while. I don't know how much, but a while, yes. He will not be ready for Wednesday, for sure. I don't think so for Arsenal [either]. We'll see."
"Khusanov should not have played; he had to take time to do it... imagine all of us living what Khusanov has lived and what happened happened, it would be, 'Oh God!'"
