 Vassell was also hit by injury in the latter stages of last season |
Manchester City striker Darius Vassell has been ruled out for at least two
weeks with a knee strain. The former England forward suffered medial ligament damage during the 1-0 win over Arsenal at Eastlands.
City manager Stuart Pearce told the club's website: "It's a blow but one of those things you have to expect during the season.
"Vass is at home resting at the minute and we hope that the injury will not require surgery."
