Ilkay Gundogan has posted a positive injury update from his hospital bed after undergoing surgery to repair his ruptured anterior cruciate ligament.
Gundogan sustained the injury during his side’s 2-0 victory over Watford earlier this month, and will more than likely miss the entirety of this season as a result.
The German international appears to be on the mend, however, and has been pictured smiling in hospital with his leg wrapped up in a cast.
