Manchester City star Bacary Sagna went off injured in France’s 4-1 win over Bulgaria last night. The 33-year-old confirmed to the reporters that he has suffered a thigh injury, and will undergo tests tomorrow.
France boss Didier Deschamps also confirmed Sagna felt discomfort in his hamstring during the early parts of the game, which ultimately led to the defender being taken off.
He said: “Bacary felt pain early in the game in his hamstring.
“He clenched his teeth but did not want his injury to get worse.”
It was quite an eventful game for the Frenchman, as he conceded a penalty before setting up an equaliser and going off injured.
Manchester City have a packed schedule ahead of them, with some very important matches over the next few weeks, and they’ll now have to assess how long Sagna is out for.
Sagna has left the French squad to return to his club for treatment, which will allow Pep Guardiola’s team to quickly get an idea of the situation.
