Antoine Semenyo is injured and faces an eight-week absence for Manchester City, Enzo Maresca confirmed.

Erling Haaland, who suffered a knock at the weekend against Ipswich Town, is in the mix to play AEK Athens on Tuesday in the Champions League.

Semenyo sustained a knee injury in City’s 3-2 Premier League win over Ipswich, after he came off the bench in the 76th minute, as reported by ESPN.

“After the scan we feel much better because it’s not as bad as we expected,” Maresca said about the Ghana winger.

“It could be eight weeks, so now the most important thing is for him to recover.”

Haaland was also limping after City beat Ipswich but Maresca was hopeful of an immediate return for him.

“He can be available,” Maresca said. “We have a session now and we’ll see.”

The Nigeria Premier Football League ,NPFL, has fined Doma United ₦5.25m for failing to provide adequate and effective security during their Matchday Nine encounter against Kun Khalifat FC.

The match, played at the Pantami Stadium last Saturday, ended in a 1-1 draw, but was marred by misconduct from home supporters after the final whistle.

According to reports, Doma United supporters attacked Kun Khalifat FC technical adviser, Obinna Uzoho, and engaged in hostile conduct towards match officials and members of the visiting team, actions deemed capable of bringing the game into disrepute.

As part of the sanctions, the Savannah Scorpions have been ordered to play their next three home matches behind closed doors following repeated security breaches.

Meanwhile, the match commissioner has been recommended for demotion to the lower league over alleged dereliction of duty, inadequate supervision and insufficient match reporting.

The NPFL has also warned Doma United to strengthen their security measures and educate their supporters on acceptable conduct, cautioning that any future breach of the league’s rules and regulations could attract more severe sanctions.

Doma United have 48 hours from the date of notification to appeal the sanctions.

According to report, Barcelona’s entire squad remains stranded at Barcelona Airport due to a delay to their flight to Paris.

The report states that Barcelona’s travel plans continue to be affected by weather and airport disruptions. The players remain grounded after their flight to Paris was originally scheduled to depart at 10:30 AM.

According to the report, the delay is due to heavy fog in Paris, which has disrupted air traffic and affected Barcelona’s flight.

Barcelona’s departure has been delayed until 11:50 AM, one hour and 20 minutes later than originally planned. The delay has further disrupted the team’s schedule on a crucial day, putting the training session scheduled for 6:30 PM at risk.

Following their 5-2 away win over Betis in their last LaLiga match, Barcelona’s squad was forced to spend the night in Seville due to bad weather and returned to Barcelona only on Sunday. The situation had already affected the team’s training schedule, with the planned Sunday morning on-field session replaced by a gym recovery session.

Paris Saint-Germain will host Barcelona in Champions League group stage on Tuesday.
