BRIGHTON, England (AP) — Manchester City playmaker Rayan Cherki will be out for around two months because of injury, manager Pep Guardiola said 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 was announcing that the midfielder has a torn left quadricep and was out of upcoming World Cup qualifiers against Ukraine and Iceland.
