Manchester City midfielder Kevin De Bruyne is reportedly facing a struggle to return before the end of the season.
De Bruyne has sustained two notable knee injuries during the current campaign, but the Belgium international has now been sidelined with a hamstring problem which was picked up against Tottenham Hotspur at the weekend.
The playmaker has already been ruled out of Wednesday's Manchester derby, but according to The Sun, the 27-year-old is not expected back until the middle of May at the earliest.
The report adds that De Bruyne could potentially recover in time for the FA Cup final with Watford, which takes place on May 18.
De Bruyne has been restricted to just 14 starts in the Premier League and Champions League this season.
