Manchester City forward Gabriel Jesus will reportedly spend two to three months on the sidelines after fracturing a metatarsal in his foot against Bournemouth on Monday evening.

The Brazilian ace came off injured just 15 minutes into City's eventual 2-0 Premier League victory at the Vitality Stadium, and the club's official website confirmed the injury on Tuesday, noting the player will "undergo further examinations" to establish a timeline for his return.

Manager Pep Guardiola will be disappointed to lose the talents of a starlet who has acclimated exceptionally to the Premier League following a winter transfer from former club Palmeiras.
