Manchester City goalkeeper Andreas Isaksson will miss Sweden's Euro 2008 qualifiers against Latvia and Liechtenstein and has revealed he may be out for up to six weeks with a foot injury.

Isaksson has missed the first two games of the season for his new club after completing a £2million move from Rennes last week, and now needs surgery to remove some loose bone in his right foot.

The 24-year-old will travel to see a specialist in London, and hopes to return to training ahead of City's game against Reading on September 11, but added he could be out much longer.

"The surgeon says I must wait two to three weeks before I can start training again, but if they find anything else wrong in the foot, I may have to rest up to six weeks," Isaksson told the Expressen newspaper.
