Manchester City star Gabriel Jesus is still coming to terms with the first serious injury of his short football career after scans revealed he had broken a metatarsal in his right foot.
The Brazilian was seen leaving his Manchester hotel on crutches earlier on Wednesday with a glum look on his face and a protective medical boot around his ailed extremity.
And he was right to look unhappy as Manchester City medical staff believe he will spend three months in rehabilitation, potentially ruling him out for the rest of the campaign.
It is a bitter blow for the Brazilian teenager to absorb as his career at the Etihad Stadium had barely begun before he went down in Monday's 2-0 win over Bournemouth.
