The injury list of the treble winners increased after their maestro midfielder suffered an injury in the opening UEFA Champions League game for this season ( 2023/24) against Red Star Belgrade. The Portuguese International is expected to be out for the next few games

Jeremy Doku was introduced in the first half in place of Bernardo Silva in Tuesday's Champions League group stage game which was played on Tuesday, September 19, 2023.

Manchester City's manager, Pep Guardiola admitted that his team was in trouble as the list of injury players continues to increase.

"He (Silva) didn't say anything at the end," Guardiola said. "I didn't speak with the doctors, but apparently, for the next games, he won't be able to play. We are in trouble but I am not going to say, 'Oh, we have a lot of injuries. When we have five important players, really, really important players injured, to sustain that for a long time will be difficult. But it is what it is."

The 28-year-old is set to miss this weekend's Premier League fixture against Nottingham Forest but Guardiola will hope Silva is fit before they face Arsenal on October 8, 2023. He joins Kevin De Bruyne, John Stones, Jack Grealish and Matteo Kovacic on the sidelines.

Guardiola told Sky Sports News that he believes Silva is happy at the club, looking at his passion and dedication to the club.

The Portuguese still have four years left on his contract, but rumours are coming from the Etihad Stadium that the player might leave the club.

All I want is for Bernardo to be happy, here or anywhere. All I want is his happiness because he is a guy that deserves the best. He's so intuitive, it's not his role as a holding midfielder, but he knows exactly how to play and how to anticipate what is going to happen, with the ball or without the ball.

Against Norwich he played exceptionally, Arsenal he played exceptionally, Southampton who played at the level of the team was not good.

But how well he played against Chelsea is no surprise. How many times have we seen it? He was an incredible signing for us because he's an exceptional person.

Silva has started five games in Manchester City's six Premier League games this season. He has been impressive so far, playing alongside Rodri in the attack.
