Injured Manchester City defender Benjamin Mendy visits clinic in Barcelona

Manchester City defender Benjamin Mendy has been spotted visiting a clinic in Barcelona.

The 23-year-old left-back, who moved to the Etihad Stadium from Monaco for around £52m in the summer, is expected to be on the sidelines for around four months.

Mendy ruptured his cruciate ligament in a challenge with Andros Townsend in a 5-0 rout over Crystal Palace earlier this month.

According to the Daily Mail, Mendy spent some time at the Quiron Clinic in Barcelona before posing for waiting photographers while on crutches.

The left-back had started four Premier League games before he was struck down with the injury.
