Oscar Bobb has apparently gotten injured during Manchester City’s training earlier today. It is being reported that the winger has suffered a broken leg. The forward was one of the bright sparks for the team during the pre-season and was touted as the biggest prospect coming up from the academy.

After being added to the first team, Oscar Bobb got his City début last year, much to the delight of the supporters who got to witness him play. However, it seems as though he may be in line for much more participation at City going forward. There are no news as to how long the Norwegian winger would be out for and this is a big blow for the champions as they lack depth in that position.

In the 2024/2025 season, Manchester City will attempt to win the Premier League for a record fifth time in a row. According to one analyst, the team will ultimately claim the Young Player of the Season award. While many hope he will extend his contract, Pep Guardiola is entering his last season as City's manager.

It is anticipated that the manager will decide on his next step at some point in the upcoming season. When it comes to transfers this summer, City has been quite quiet. So yet, only Savinho has entered. Many people are curious as to whether the club would now make some financial investments following Julian Alvarez's departure.

In Sunday's Premier League opener against Chelsea, Bobb had a strong chance of starting for City, and if he would have played, he'll be trying to build on his impressive performance.

Can Oscar Bobb have a season like Cole Palmer?

Before the new season begins, Bobb has City supporters excited, and many believe he could have a breakout season similar to Cole Palmer's. Palmer had a fantastic season last season on his debut with Chelsea.

Bobb appears poised to assume a more significant role this term, as he has demonstrated razor-sharp skills in recent weeks. All that has to be seen is if Pep Guardiola is prepared to provide him that demonstration of faith.
