Manchester City trained at the City Football Academy ahead of a flight to Paris to take on PSG in a must-win Champions League fixture.

Ten Manchester City players missed the open section of training on Tuesday ahead of the Champions League trip to Paris Saint-Germain - with the only defenders present their £63m double signing.

Every eligible defender - or midfielder who could play at the back - was missing from the first 15 minutes of training which is open to broadcasters and journalists, as Pep Guardiola appeared to throw a huge distraction ahead of their flight to France later on Tuesday. Guardiola could be asked about the extreme move when he faces the media in Paris later on Tuesday, while all eyes will be on the travelling squad - if it is announced - to see who is present and who is not.

Walker was part of the defensive group who were missing from training, as were Nico O'Reilly and James McAtee who have played in defence in the past. Jeremy Doku and Oscar Bobb were also missing.
