Nastasic out for 6 weeks
Manchester City's preparations for the Premier League campaign were dealt a blow on Tuesday as the club announced that centre-back Matija Nastasic will miss the first month of the season.
The 20-year-old Serbia international was stretchered off with an ankle injury during a pre-season game against Sunderland in Hong Kong last month and the club announced on their website that he will be sidelined for "four to six weeks".
England international Joleon Lescott is likely to deputise alongside captain Vincent Kompany in the absence of Nastasic.
