Phil Foden injury latest: Man City handed boost as England star spotted in training despite limping off against Real Madrid…Read more….
However, there is hope he’s avoided any serious injury and should be back in contention for City sooner rather than later.
Foden was on the receiving end of a heavy challenge near the end of the game and limped off to be replaced by Julian Alvarez.
The versatile forward appeared to be unhappy to be coming off, but it was clear that Guardiola wasn’t taking any risks
The boss has been unable to rule in or rule out anyone until after Friday afternoon’s training session when he can better assess those carrying knocks from previous weeks or our midweek clash with Real Madrid.
At his pre-game press conference, the City boss was asked for updates on Phil Foden, Kyle Walker, Kevin De Bruyne and Ederson.
He responded: “We are training this afternoon so we will know better how they feel.
“[On Phil] I would like to tell you, but I didn’t speak to the doctors. After the press conference, we have a meeting, and we will see.
“[As for Kyle], I don’t know right now. Honestly I would tell you. Josko was a doubt for Madrid, but our physios did an incredible job, and he could play.”
Ederson was on the bench for the 3-3 draw in the Bernabeu and Guardiola was asked whether he was ready to start against the Hatters if required
