Man City manager Pep Guardiola confirms Kyle Walker injury
03.09.2022 - 23:03 / manchestereveningnews.co.uk
Pep Guardiola confirmed that Kyle Walker was unable to complete 90 minutes against Aston Villa due to injury.
Nathan Ake, back in the squad for the first time since suffering a groin injury against Newcastle, came on for the final 10 minutes as Walker limped off at Villa Park in the 1-1 draw. The right-back had endured another tough afternoon after wasting a glorious early chance to put the Blues ahead, but the manager confirmed that his substitution was not tactical.
City's manager had not seen the medical team to be able to give a diagnosis on the issue, but was concerned enough to bring Walker off. "He had some problem in the first-half," he said.

"He continued, but at the end, he could not continue. We will see, I didn't speak with the doctors."
Walker adds to City injury issues, with Aymeric Laporte a long-term concern at the back and Kalvin Phillips remains out with a shoulder injury sustained in the charity match with Barcelona. However, Ake returned at Villa and so too did Jack Grealish even if he did not come off the bench.
City will also hope to use Manuel Akanji soon, their deadline day signing from Dortmund who was absent this weekend following the birth of his child. There will have to be fingers crossed that Walker's injury is not severe though as the Blues embark on a relentless schedule before the World Cup with games every three days, they start their Champions League campaign in Seville on Tuesday.
