LONDON, Feb 28 (Reuters) - England full back Micah Richards will be out for six weeks following an operation on damaged cartilage in his right knee, Manchester City manager Sven-Goran Eriksson said.

Richards, 19, who travelled to London for the surgery, will definitely miss England's friendly with France on March 26 but should be back for his club, who are challenging for a Champions League place, before the end of the season.
