Vincent Kompany’s presence in the crucial clash against Liverpool hangs in the balance after the Citizens’ captain sustained an injury during training on Saturday. The Belgian international reportedly suffered a fall, with concerns raised over his knee.
As per RTBF, the central defender, of Congolese origin, was seen holding his knee and being assisted off the field by his teammates, following an aerial duel with Micah Richards. This development comes as unwelcome news for Manuel Pellegrini, who may face the prospect of having to navigate the match without his defensive linchpin. As of now, it remains uncertain whether Kompany will be available for tomorrow’s fixture.
In what promises to be a pivotal encounter of the Premier League weekend, league leaders Liverpool are set to host Manchester City, who trail by 4 points but hold two games in hand, on Sunday. This match could prove decisive in the title race, with just four rounds of fixtures remaining.
