Manchester City winger Oscar Bobb is set to miss the start of the Premier League season after reportedly breaking a bone in his leg.
British media reported the Norway international sustained the injury in training this week and that it has yet to be fully assessed, after which a full prognosis would be given.
City has yet to publicly confirm the injury to the 21-year-old Bobb, who impressed in pre-season and was likely to start on the right wing for the team’s league opener against Chelsea on Sunday with some key players back late to preseason training.
