Pep Guardiola has confirmed that Manchester City forward Ferran Torres will be out for between two and three months with a broken metatarsal.
Torres picked up the injury playing for Spain in the UEFA Nations League finals last week. He initially hurt his foot in his side's semi-final triumph over Italy - where he scored twice in the first half.
He was eventually withdrawn just after the interval but went on to start and play 84 minutes in the final, which Spain lost to France.
After that game he underwent a scan and although it had initially been hoped that he would be back in contention in six weeks, Guardiola has since confirmed that the layoff will be significantly longer.
"Injuries can happen here, home, national team. It happens. I know the manager from Spain, he treats Ferran [Torres] as best as possible, doesn't want him to get injured. They try to take care, sometimes it happens. It happened with Kevin and Phil," he said.
