The Premier League champions have suffered an extensive injury list so far this season, and now they could potentially be adding another name to the treatment table.
[freshpress-poll id=”249812″]
Manchester City left-back Angelino was taken off with just over ten minutes remaining of their 3-1 Carabao Cup win over Southampton with an injury, prompting fans to react in a disheartened manner to another potential blow.
Along with the likes of Rodrigo, Leroy Sane, Aymeric Laporte and Oleksandr Zinchenko – the Spanish defender could be joining them in being out for the foreseeable future depending on the extent of the knock.
The left-back position has long been an achilles heel to this City side, and now Benjamin Mendy – a player known for repeated injury struggles – looks to be their only option in the role.
As a result, supporters have reacted with real concern and frustration, taking to Twitter and wishing Angelino a speedy recovery with hopes that it won’t be serious.
Played absolutely out standing tonight feel sorry for him
