"Manchester City" attacking midfielder David Silva suffered a shin injury and will miss this week's "Premier" league match against London's "Crystal Palace".
The 29-year-old Spaniard started the season well - in the first four games he scored one goal and provided four assists.
This news was confirmed by the "City" manager Manuel Pellegrini. The Chilean said he believed Silva would recover in time for Tuesday's UEFA Champions League match against Turin's "Juventus".
The coach also reassured fans by announcing that injured defender Bacary Sagna, who also suffered a shin injury while playing for the French national team, will be able to play in the weekend match.
Pablo Zabaleta, Gael Clichy, and Fabian Delph will definitely not play for the capital team.
