England and Manchester City star doubtful for 2022 World Cup, Guardiola confirms

Kyle Walker could miss the World Cup 2022 due to an injury, according to talkSPORT.

Manchester City defender missted the 5-0 win over FC Copenhagen after picking an injury in Manchester Derby last weekend.

The 32-year-old played both of the England's games during September’s international duty and is a huge part of Gareth Southgate’s plans.

However, Walker's presence in the Three Lion's squad to Qatar is currently uncertain, as per Pep Guardiola.

“It’s something abdominal and he will be a while out,” Guardiola said. “I don’t know [how long for]. I cannot say anything else.

“Kyle will be out for a bit. We have to speak to the doctors. Hopefully he can get [back for the World Cup] like Kalvin [Phillips].

“I know how important the World Cup is for the players but honestly I don’t know right now.” stated the manager.
