Bernardo Silva was substituted shortly before half-time of Manchester City's Champions League win over Crvena Zvezda.
Pep Guardiola says Bernardo Silva was injured as he was substituted in the first half of Manchester City's Champions League win over Crvena Zvezda on Tuesday.
Guardiola had shouted at the latest member of his captaincy group shortly before, and did not look at Bernardo as he walked off. Speaking after the game, the manager offered clarity on the situation, saying the midfielder will miss at least the next Premier League fixture against Nottingham Forest.
"When we have five important players - really really important players - injured so sustain that for a long time will be difficult. But it is what it is," he said.
