City star Kyle Walker threatens to lose the World Cup

Kyle Walker is at risk of losing the World Cup after suffering an injury in the derby against Manchester United. The defender is out indefinitely.

England star Kyle Walker is threatened with the World Cup in Qatar. The defender was substituted early in the Manchester derby and has not been able to train since.

That would be a bitter blow to Kyle Walker! The Manchester City defender picked up a groin injury in the derby against Manchester United and is sidelined indefinitely. “He will be out for a while,” said his coach Pep Guardiola on the sidelines of the Champions League game against FC Copenhagen. According to consistent English media reports, Walker has already had an operation.

As a result, the 32-year-old, who was seeded at right-back under national coach Gareth Southgate, could miss the World Cup in Qatar. “I know how important the World Cup is for the players, but to be honest I don’t know at the moment [ob er teilnehmen kann]”Said the Spanish star coach.

Is it the last big tournament for Kyle Walker?

But club coach Guardiola also has to worry now, Walker was also set on the right side for the Blues and has played eight competitive games so far.

It could be Walker’s last major tournament. So far, the right-back has played 70 international matches for the Three Lions and has already played for the English national team at the 2014 and 2018 World Cups.
