“Manchester City” club head coach Pep Guardiola revealed which players will not travel to the Spanish capital for the upcoming UEFA Champions League quarterfinal match against Madrid’s “Real”:
“Kyle Walker and Nathan Ake will miss the first quarterfinal match. Josko Guardiola has already trained with the team.
Kyle Walker is the best player who could stop Vinicius, but he suffered an injury during training. We need to find a solution.
J. Guardiola, although he trained, there are also questions about his performance.
“Real” players Thibaut Courtois, Eder Militao, and David Alaba have had long injuries... The most important thing is to find solutions.”
P. Guardiola also stated that they will consider which goalkeeper to allow for the match:
“Ederson or Stefano Ortega against Madrid’s “Real”? I have to think about it because Ederson is returning from injury and feels good.
So I have to think about whether to allow a goalkeeper who has not had much playing experience recently. But we are very satisfied with S. Ortega, he is an exceptional goalkeeper!”
