Kompany announced on Facebook on Saturday that he would miss the tournament in France due to the thigh and groin injury he suffered in the second leg of the Champions League semi-final against Real Madrid.

The Belgium captain underwent surgery on the problem and national physio Lieven Maesschlack says he will miss the start of next season.

“Vincent Kompany is out for four months,” Maesschalck said. “But he will come back."
