City manager Manuel Pellegrini has confirmed that the Belgian will be facing a further spell on the sidelines after his team's goalless draw with Leicester on Tuesday night.
"Vincent has an injury, a second degree tear of the calf. It is the same calf but a different part," Pellegrini told ESPN.
"We will see how long he will be out, but I don't think it will be less than three to four weeks.
"I am not a doctor, but with a muscle injury, it will be very difficult for him to be back in less than four weeks. But, without him, we must continue to defend as did tonight."
The Chilean also praised his team's performance against the Foxes, believing they controlled the match for lengthy periods.
"I think we did more than Leicester to win the game," he added.
"We had more possession, we had more attempts on goal, we had more clear options.
"But it was a tough game against a very good team, playing here away."
