Walker, injured at the Wanda Metropolitano, regarded at Wembley at the weekend with a heavy bandage on his ankle that avoided him from on foot commonly. But the Englishman is dubious to play towards Real Madrid in the first leg.
Pep Guardiola confirmed at a press convention that the England defender will miss the conflict with Brighton & Hove Albion and that he does now not realize while Walker, a primary-desire starter when suit, could be to be had again.
This should pressure Guardiola to play Joao Cancelo on the other flank, as he did in the first leg towards Atletico Madrid, and to apply Oleksandr Zinchenko, Nathan Ake or John Stones out of role at the left flank.
Kevin de Bruyne appears probable to be in shape for the clash with 'Los Blancos'. The Belgian additionally pulled out of the Metropolitano with a niggle, but was most of the substitutes in Saturday's FA Cup semi-very last and, even though he did not play due to the fact Guardiola did now not see him prepared but, it seems he'll haven't any troubles to be suit for subsequent week's conflict with Madrid.
In addition, Ruben Dias, last season's Premier League Player of the Year, may want to get his first mins on Tuesday after missing Manchester City's remaining nine games with a hamstring injury.
