Manchester City star Josko Gvardiol needed help to get off the pitch after suffering a painful right leg injury versus Chelsea on Sunday.
Gvardiol, 23, was going stride-for-stride with Malo Gusto and his right ankle seemed to react awkwardly as he made a lunge toward the ball. Whether it's an ankle strain or something even lower — a scary thought — it doesn't look good at all.

Gvardiol quickly signaled to the bench and had to be replaced in the 52nd minute, heading directly down the tunnel after getting help from a trainer and Reece James to limp heavily to the sidelines.
He was replaced by Abdukhodir Khusanov, as Gvardiol was already playing center back instead of his preferred left back due to injuries in City's outfit.
