Manchester City captain Carlos Tevez has been ruled out of Saturday's Premier League match at Wolves with a thigh problem
Tevez: Thigh injury
Tevez suffered a dead leg during the loss to Arsenal at the weekend and was forced off early in the second half.
Manager Roberto Mancini had hoped the striker would be fit for the trip to Molineux but the game will come too soon.
The injury is not thought to be too serious and Tevez is expected to be back in training next week.
City have also given Tevez permission to travel to Argentina to visit his family, although he will report back on Monday.
Mancini had previously called on Argentina to use the 26-year-old less frequently as travelling such long distances leaves him little time to get ready for club games.
