During an international match with the Netherlands, Nathan Ake suffered a serious injury and had to be taken off the field on a stretcher. The Manchester City defender was playing against Germany in a Nations League game when the unfortunate incident occurred. The Dutch team was in the lead thanks to Tijjani Reijnders, but Germany equalized with a goal from Deniz Undav. Just before halftime, Ake had to leave the field due to what seemed to be a hamstring injury as he was trying to control the ball. The seriousness of the situation was evident as the referee called for medical assistance for the 29-year-old player.

Nathan Ake seemed to have sustained a significant injury while representing the Netherlands during Tuesday night’s match.

The Manchester City defender was visibly upset as he was carried off the field on a stretcher during the Netherlands’ 2-2 draw with Germany. Despite trying to stand back up, Ake eventually had to be taken off and replaced by Arsenal’s Jurrien Timber. Soon after, Joshua Kimmich scored to give Julian Nagelsmann’s team the lead before half-time, but Denzel Dumfries equalized to make it 2-2. Ake’s injury is sure to be a concern for Pep Guardiola, especially with City’s busy schedule after the international break. The Premier League champions will be aiming to maintain their perfect start to the season when they take on Brentford this Saturday.

The 29-year-old player is now in a state of uncertainty as he waits to learn the extent of his injury. Just a few days later, they will kick off their European campaign against Inter Milan in the new-look Champions League at home. Following that, Arsenal will travel to the Etihad for a crucial match that could impact the title race at the end of the season.
