Presenter left speechless after Manchester City's April Fools prank

Fabian Delph was instructed to have a hissy fit about a straightforward injury question.

A hapless presenter was the subject of an early April Fools’ Day prank at Manchester City.

CityTV reporter Nicola McCarthy thought she was doing a regular interview with injured midfielder Fabian Delph.

But her crew were actually conspiring with the footballer to prank her.

Delph was instructed to have a hissy fit about a straightforward injury question and flounce out in a huff.

The England footballer won’t be winning an Oscar anytime soon - but he was convincing enough to give the presenter a very anxious few minutes before revealing the truth.
