Manchester City can confirm Ilkay Gundogan suffered a knee sprain in the 2-1 win over West Brom on Wednesday.

The German midfielder underwent tests this morning after being taken off during the Carabao Cup victory at the Hawthorns and the Club’s medical staff found no significant damage.

The affected knee is different to the one which kept Ilkay out for nine months after his last setback suffered against Watford in December.

It is too early at this stage to give an exact time frame on his absence but he is expected to be back on the training field in the coming days.
