Man City's Sterling to be out 'for weeks'

Manchester City's Raheem Sterling is set to be out of action "for weeks" with a hamstring injury, manager Pep Guardiola says.

The 25-year-old suffered the injury in their 2-1 defeat at Tottenham Hotspur in the English Premier League on Sunday and scans showed damage to the hamstring on his left leg.

"It takes weeks, but I don't know how long right now," Guardiola told reporters on Friday.

Champions City, who sit second in the Premier League, 22 points behind leaders Liverpool, play West Ham on Sunday.
