Nathan Ake suffered an injury playing for the Netherlands against Germany in the Nations League and the Man City defender could be on the sidelines for a while.
It's not difficult to understand why Pep Guardiola loves Nathan Ake . The defender is versatile, reliable and never complains. He is a team man at Manchester City and in Guardiola's book, that is almost everything. The 29-year-old has played only three minutes across two substitute appearances so far this season, but there is always a time when Ake is required, either at left-back or centre-back.

'He is an exceptional guy, there was a period where he didn’t play and he never complained once.' It now looks like Guardiola will be without that 'exceptional guy', a player as valuable on the training pitches as he is on a matchday.
