Manchester City playmaker Rayan Cherki will be out for around two months because of injury, manager Pep Guardiola said on Sunday, and has been replaced in the France squad by in-form Liverpool striker Hugo Ekitike. Around the same time as Guardiola was giving his injury diagnosis for Cherki, France were announcing that the midfielder had torn his left quadricep and was out of upcoming World Cup qualifiers against Ukraine and Iceland.
This is a dream for me. To be joining a club like Manchester City and have the opportunity to make the next step in my career here is something very, very special.
As Rayan Cherki's impressive statistics and talent generate buzz, top clubs like Manchester United, Tottenham, and Bayern Munich are battling for his signature this summer.
