Manchester City suffer Ilkay Gundogan injury scare on the eve of Champions League final against Chelsea... midfielder limps out of training with thigh injury after taking a heavy blow from Fernandinho

Ilkay Gundogan gave Manchester City an injury scare on the eve of their first Champions League final.

The central midfielder appeared to take a bang on the thigh during a challenge with Fernandinho during City’s training session at the Estadio Do Dragao.

Gundogan, who limped off, was an unused substitute for last weekend’s 5-0 victory over Everton and Pep Guardiola will be left hoping Friday’s issue is only an impact injury.
