Manchester City’s summer transfer window signing Owen Hargreaves has suffered yet another setback in his return to regular club football as the English midfielder has now injured his calf in a training session. Owen Hargreaves
started his career in the English Premier League with Manchester United after the Red Devils had signed him for 17 million pounds from Bayern Munich.
In his first season at Old Trafford, the English midfielder helped United win the UEFA Champions League as well as the English Premier League. However his subsequent time at the Theatre of Dreams was plagued by constant injury
troubles in the end, Sir http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Alex-c4752 Ferguson and Hargreaves reached a mutual agreement which implied his departure from the club as United did not offer him a new contract.
Hargreaves’ knees have been a constant source of anxiety for the former Bayern Munich defensive midfielder as he has found it hard to recover from the two knee operations that he has had in his career so far. Manchester City bought
Hargreaves in the summer transfer window as he was a free agent and he also scored his first goal for the club in his first appearance at the City of Manchester stadium.
First team coach http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/David-c10409 Platt elaborated on Owen’s situation as he stated, "There is no worry about it. He has got a little niggle that because it is Owen Hargreaves we are talking about it. It is nothing much, it is just a kick
in the calf. We have had it scanned and there is no pull or anything. He has not broken down. If he had broken down we would be talking about him being out for three or four weeks but that is not the case."
He added, "Since we came back from the international break, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Owen-Hargreaves-c28918 has been one of the 24-25 players available for selection. He could well have been in the squad for the derby.” Manchester City will hope that Hargreaves
recovers sooner rather than later as their UEFA Champions League as well as the English Premier League campaign will surely benefit from his vast range of experience.
