Manchester City are headed to Madrid today ahead of their Champions League semi-final first leg against Real Madrid, but it looks as if they will head into that tie without one of their crucial defenders.
According to Sport, Nathan Ake has not trained with the rest of the City squad ahead the tie, and thus looks unlikely to make the first leg. Ake had suffered a muscle problem against Leeds United over the weekend, leaving the pitch after 54 minutes for Kyle Walker.
