City Midfielder Kovacic Out of Club World Cup After Achilles Surgery

Mateo Kovacic will be sidelined for Manchester City’s upcoming FIFA Club World Cup campaign in June after undergoing surgery to address an Achilles tendon injury.
Kovacic's injury had affected him for some time, causing him to miss the FA Cup final and Croatia's recent World Cup qualifiers.
He played 42 matches and scored seven goals across all competitions this past season, making him an important player for City.
Manchester City announced that Mateo will be undergoing rehabilitation throughout the summer following his operation, and the entire club is hoping for his swift recovery.
Kovacic's absence leaves Pep Guardiola with fewer midfield options as City starts the expanded Club World Cup in the United States on June 18.
