Manchester City is now worried about the physical condition of Kyle Walker in time for their important game with Arsenal in the Premier League. This is due to the fact that the substitute England captain got injured while playing against Brazil.

The experienced defender appeared to pull his left hamstring in the 17th minute when he used his well-known speed to stop Vnicius Jr from scoring.

The defense of England was surprised by a ball passed over their backs and it seemed like a goal was certain when the attacker from Real Madrid pushed the ball past a hesitant Jordan Pickford.

Walker had different plans and ran quickly to prevent the ball from going into the goal. His dedication to the team resulted in a sacrifice.

The player who is 33 years old, has taken over the role of captain in the absence of Harry Kane during the match. Despite trying to continue playing, the player eventually gave in to their injury and was substituted for Ezri Konsa from Aston Villa, who was making his first appearance at a senior level.

Gareth Southgate had no choice but to select an improvised team due to a bunch of injuries to some of his main players.

Last weekend, Kane suffered an ankle injury after colliding with a post while playing in Bayern Munich's victory against Darmstadt.

Earlier this week, the individual who is thirty years old practiced away from the main team and didn't heal quickly enough to participate in the match against Brazil.

The manager of the England team expressed doubt about Kane's ability to play against the Red Devils and wondered if the growing pressure on players was impacting their availability.

He declared that people desire uncomplicated answers to intricate dilemmas. A few athletes have merely encountered bad luck. Kane sustained an injury when he collided with the goal post during the recent match, and as a result, his ankle's mechanism has been affected.

Regarding Saka, it seems that he has sustained a more severe injury based on the choice made by the medical team of England on Thursday.

The Arsenal player who plays as a winger, is currently struggling with a muscle injury. He has gone back to his club, which is based in north London, so that he can be observed and checked before the big Premier League match against Manchester City, which is scheduled for next Sunday.

Sven-Goran Eriksson was moved to tears by the passionate singing of Liverpool fans as they belted out the club's iconic anthem "You'll Never Walk Alone."

Arsenal are set to encounter a difficult situation with their fixtures following the announcement of significant changes by the Premier League.

Sporting has decided on a price for Viktor Gyokeres, a transfer target for both Arsenal and Chelsea.
