Gvardiol, a 23-year-old Croatia international, was forced to leave after 51 minutes against Chelsea, and Ruben Dias, a fellow central defender, also suffered an injury 30 minutes later.
City stated in a statement that they were still attempting to “ascertain the full extent” of Gvardiol’s injury and his anticipated recovery period.
Gvardiol thanked fans for their support in a Instagram post, writing, “This is a difficult moment, but it will never define me. I am aware of my background and where I am.
He continued, “I’ll fight every day to come back stronger.” Better than ever, I’ll rise once more.
Max Alleyne, a former academy player, could be in the squad for Wednesday’s Premier League game against Brighton, who was on loan at Watford from City.
After joining on a season’s loan, the 20-year-old, son of Gloucestershire head coach Mark Alleyne, made 17 appearances for the Hornets.
