Manchester City fans have been reacting to a post on Twitter which relays a report that claims Ilkay Gundogan will undergo further assessment this week on the shoulder injury sustained vs Tottenham.
The German midfielder left the pitch after his side’s 1-0 Premier League defeat at Tottenham with strapping on following a late collision.
Pep Guardiola speaking during his post-match media duties confirmed after the game that the Germany international would be checked by the club’s doctors on Monday.
According to Journalist Mike Minay, Ilkay Gundogan will undergo ‘further assessment‘ this week on the shoulder injury that he sustained towards the back end of last weekend’s Premier League clash in North London.
The report goes on to reveal that Gundogan’s problem is ‘not too serious‘ and is not expected to keep him out of action for several weeks – despite first concerns.
This is good news as it would be a huge blow if this shoulder injury were to keep him out for an extended period, especially considering the timing and City’s difficult opening run of games.
Guardiola’s side face Arsenal, Chelsea and Leicester City in September before a trip to Anfield in early October, and could well find themselves playing catch up in the title race if they struggle in those fixtures.
Man City fans are now worried about how his injury could impact their chances of retaining the premier league, considering the timing and difficult opening run of games.
Here’s what some fans have had to say on social media.
Several weeks? Ladies and gentlemen, we’re doomed!!
