Manchester City boss, Pep Guardiola, has labelled their Champions League quarter-final second leg against Real Madrid as “a final”.
The Premier League champions played out a thrilling 3-3 draw with Los Blancos last Tuesday.
Ahead of the return leg at the Etihad this Wednesday, Guardiola is hoping to have defender Kyle Walker available for the clash.
“Kyle Walker feels much better, maybe he can help with minutes against Real Madrid because it’s a final.
“But I don’t want to lose him for a long time… we will decide in the next days.”
Walker has not played for City since picking up a muscle problem during the last international break.
