Man City hit with major double injury concern before Liverpool semi-final after Atletico Madrid tie in Champions League

Man City face major injury concerns ahead of Saturday's FA Cup semi-final tie against Liverpool with Kyle Walker and Kevin de Bruyne being forced off with injuries on Wednesday night.

Pep Guardiola's side faced Atletico Madrid in the UEFA Champions League quarter-final on Wednesday night and will meet Real Madrid in the semi-finals. But injuries to Walker and De Bruyne have left the current Premier League leaders with a fitness headache just days before a key fixture.

De Bruyne was taken off for Raheem Sterling and then spotted with ice around his right leg while sitting on the bench. For England defender Walker, things could be a lot serious after he appeared to be in a lot of discomfort following a clearance. Walker tried to play on but was forced off to be replaced by Nathan Ake.
