“Manchester City’s Jack Grealish is facing a race against time to be fit for the team’s Premier League opener against Chelsea on Sunday, according to manager Pep Guardiola.
Grealish suffered an injury during training ahead of the Community Shield match against Manchester United, causing him to miss the Wembley clash.
The England midfielder’s availability for the trip to Stamford Bridge is now uncertain, leaving Guardiola with a potential selection headache as the defending champions begin their league campaign.”
“Discomfort for two days but especially on Friday, his feeling wasn’t good.
“I don’t think it’s a big issue but we didn’t want to take a risk. It’s a blow, he had rhythm and was aggressive.
“Maybe against Chelsea he will be ready or I’m pretty sure against Ipswich Town. If he’d got injured now it could be three weeks or a month out,” Grealish said.
Jeremy Doku and new £33million signing Savinho will vie for the left wing berth in Grealish’s place.
