Manchester City lost Benjamin Mendy to a serious knee injury, but thankfully Pep Guardiola found a very good replacement in Fabian Delph. In fact, Delph was so good at left-back over the last few weeks that he earned a call-up to the England national team.
Unfortunately, Delph got injured while with England has been sent back to Manchester City, the club announced on Monday.
Fabian Delph has withdrawn from the @England squad.

This is obviously really bad news for City, but it sounds like it’s not a serious problem. We need Delph back as soon as possible, and hopefully he’ll be ready for Napoli after the international break.
Get better soon, Delphie!
