Antoine Semenyo faces up to eight-week knee injury layoff

Manchester City manager Enzo Maresca has announced that winger Antoine Semenyo could be sidelined for up to eight weeks due to a knee injury. The injury occurred during a Premier League match against Ipswich on October 17.

While initial fears were high, Maresca noted that medical scans provided some relief, stating, “After the scan we feel much better because it’s not as bad as we expected.” The recovery timeline suggests a potential return around mid-December.

The injury presents challenges for both club and country. Semenyo’s absence may impact Ghana’s Black Stars during their World Cup qualifying preparations. At the club level, the injury is expected to cause him to miss several Premier League fixtures and Champions League matches.
