In the English "Premier League" title for the second year in a row, "Manchester City" has received confirmation of Kevin De Bruyne's injury.
The "Cityzens" reported that the Belgian injured his knee ligaments and will be forced to miss the next three months due to the injury. The good news is that the midfielder will not require surgery, but his return to the field will have to wait.
Earlier this week, news emerged from the "Man City" camp that K. De Bruyne suffered a serious injury during training. It was initially predicted that he would be out for two months, but further examinations revealed that the Belgian will need more time.
Last season, K. De Bruyne was a key player for "City" - in 52 games played, he scored 12 goals and provided 21 assists.
