Josko Gvardiol
January 2026
Manchester City confirmed Josko Gvardiol has suffered a tibial fracture after the Chelsea draw, raising concern he could miss a significant period. The defensive situation is compounded by other centre-back issues. Gvardiol went off early in the second half and initial signs looked minor, but medical confirmation revealed a broken right leg. City’s back line is stretched with Ruben Dias also forced off and John Stones already unavailable.
