John Stones was injured in the early moments of England’s match against Belgium, just days before the Manchester City star faced a key league match.

Manchester City will play Arsenal on Sunday, who are pivotal in the Premier League title race but lasted less than 10 minutes at Wembley before being replaced by Joe Gomez.

While the fact that Stones has left will be reassuring in the short term, there will be concerns over the defender’s availability ahead of a crucial run of club games for the Man City stalwart.

He had played all 90 minutes of Saturday’s 1-0 loss to Brazil but was unable to play a significant role in Tuesday’s match at Wembley.

Manchester City have received a boost as Kyle Walker avoided a serious hamstring injury during the Brazil match, and Pep Guardiola’s side were “hopeful” he would be fit for the crucial game against Arsenal.
