Manchester City's key striker Elling Holan was out of the lineup due to an ankle injury. In fact, the season is likely to be out. Manchester City may not be able to advance to the Europa League, let alone the UEFA Champions League next season. Holan is expected to be out for up to seven weeks.

British Sky Sports reported on the 2nd (Korea time) 'Elling Holan could be absent for up to seven weeks' Coach Pep Guardiola confirmed. Holan was injured by an opponent's tackle in the last FA Cup quarter-final against Bournemouth.

For Manchester City, there is an emergency. Currently, Manchester City is competing for the top spot in the English Premier League (EPL). In the FA Cup semi-finals, they will face Nottingham Forest. He will also participate in the FIFA Club World Cup in the United States in June.




Guardiola revealed the specific recovery period for Holan's injury at a press conference ahead of the game against Leicester City on the 3rd.

Guardiola said `Medical staff expect it to take five to seven weeks"I hope I can return before the Club World Cup."

Guardiola also expressed regret by mentioning Manchester City's injury problems this season.




He "There's a year when this happens. That's how this season has been."There have been a lot of injuries all season. It's a pity for the players, and so is Holan. We are hoping for a quick recovery as soon as possible."

Guardiola acknowledged that there are no players in the team to replace Holan, but stressed that a new solution must be found.

Guardiola said "No player has the same skills and abilities as Holan. But we have to adapt"We've been running the game in many ways, and we'll find solutions to match the capabilities of the current players."




Holan played in 40 official games this season and scored 30 goals and four assists. He is a key player in charge of most of Manchester City's goals. Manchester City will have a tough rest of the season with the departure of the `Ace.'

In particular, the key is whether he can win a ticket to the UEFA Champions League. Manchester City needs to raise its Premier League ranking in order to head to the Champions League next season. Currently, Manchester City remain in fifth place in the league. There is only one point gap with fourth-place Chelsea. Champions League tickets are only given to the fourth place.

The problem is that in the worst case, the Europa League is also out of the question. Newcastle and Brighton are closely chasing Manchester City by one point. Once you slip, Manchester City may find it hard to move up the rankings again. In this case, he has to put all his life and death on the line to win the FA Cup.
