Manchester City boss Mark Hughes
told the official City website that the 20-year-old forward’s recovery
is well on track.
"The hamstring has been the
issue with him but there’s been an underlying problem that we weren’t
aware of that keeps holding him back,’ added Sparky.
‘It’s at the top of the
hamstring and might have been there all the time due to his make-up
and we’ve treated the side of the hamstring, whereas he’s been
compromised by an injury higher up.’
‘We’ve had to be strict and
retrace steps and go back and start again with him which is
frustrating really because he’s been out for too long.’
Etuhu’s last City appearance was
back in August when hew came on as a substitute against West Ham
United.
