Manchester City striker Khadija is ruled out for the remainder of the season with a foot injury.
Manchester City striker Khadija Shaw has been ruled out for the remainder of the season with a foot injury.But the Jamaica international will miss the remainder of the campaign after injuring her foot during City's 5-0 WSL victory over West Ham last Sunday.
Her absence, after suffering the injury towards the end of the first half against West Ham, is a major blow to City's attempts to win a first WSL title since 2016."Bunny is our main number nine, but Mary has played there, Lauren has played there. Chloe is capable of playing there, Jess can do a really good job there," he said.
WSL leaders City could go six points clear of reigning champions Chelsea if they beat bottom club Bristol City this Sunday, although they would have played two games more than the second-placed Blues.Taylor said the stresses of an intense schedule for elite women's footballers had played a role in City's injury woes.
