Vincent Kompany loses PSG fitness battle

Manchester City captain Vincent Kompany has lost his battle to be fit for his side’s decisive Champions League quarter-final clash against Paris Saint-Germain.

The influential Belgium defender had been hoping to feature in tonight’s second leg at the Etihad Stadium after a month on the sidelines with the latest in a long line of calf-related problems.

But despite the 30-year-old being involved in training, Kompany’s involvement has been deemed too much of a risk by manager Manuel Pellegrini.
