Premier League: Manchester City receive huge boost ahead of Arsenal clash

Manchester City's hopes for Sunday's Premier League encounter against Arsenal received a significant lift as the injury sustained by defender Kyle Walker during England's friendly with Brazil has been deemed "not too serious."

Walker's early exit from the match after just 20 minutes raised concerns, particularly regarding a potential hamstring injury.

However, subsequent assessments have indicated that the injury is not severe, providing a sense of relief for City ahead of the weekend's blockbuster clash.

According to Sky Sports, Walker’s injury is “not thought to be too serious”.

The hamstring issue is described as being “tight” rather than a “strain”, with progress on Walker to be monitored over the coming days.

The report adds that City are “hopeful” the 33-year-old will be ready to face Arsenal in that crunch Premier League encounter at the weekend.
