Man City star Ilkay Gundogan praised by Alicia Keys for carpool karaoke

To help while away a dull car journey, Ilkay Gundogan had a go at belting out an Alicia Keys power ballad while driving home from Manchester City training a few weeks ago.

With a little help from his friend alongside him, the midfielder happily warbled along to Keys' song "Blended Family" from the passenger seat.

Having posted his handywork on Instagram and garnered a smattering of likes from his followers, Gundogan probably assumed that would be the last he heard of his karaoke classic.

Not so, for it would appear that Keys herself recently stumbled across Gundogan's rendition of her tune and, what's more, even took the time to voice her appreciation of the City's man's version.
