Manchester City manager Roberto Mancini confirms that David Silva will not be available for this weekend's match against West Bromwich Albion but targets a return against Swansea City.

Manchester City manager Roberto Mancini has confirmed that playmaker David Silva will be unavailable for tomorrow's Premier League encounter with West Bromwich Albion as well as the club's Champions League fixture against Ajax.

The 26-year-old has been a doubt for the clash after picking up a hamstring injury during Spain's 1-1 draw with France on Tuesday.

"David has a hamstring problem and is not ready for tomorrow," said Mancini. "We hope that he will be ready for the next Premier League game against Swansea."

Meanwhile, the Italian boss has insisted that all of his players will wear anti-racism T-shirts to support the 'Kick It Out' campaign this weekend.
