Man City star picks up injury ahead of Arsenal game

Manchester City defender Kyle Walker has picked up a hamstring injury ahead of the Premier League meeting against Arsenal.

The Cityzens are currently third in the league table, but they are only one point behind the Gunners, who are top of the standings.

The club are scheduled to host the Gunners at the Etihad Stadium on March 31, but ahead of the game, they have suffered a setback.

Walker suffered a hamstring injury in the early stages of the Brazil friendly. He was forced to be substituted as he could not carry on.

The right-back was back in the dugout to watch the rest of the game, but he could face a race against time to be fit for the Arsenal clash.

Pep Guardiola's side are currently uncertain over the fitness of Kevin de Bruyne and Ederson too ahead of the crucial league meeting.

De Bruyne is nursing a hamstring problem while Ederson sustained a muscular issue during the 1-1 draw against Liverpool at Anfield.
