Erling Haaland may not be available for the highly anticipated Manchester City vs Liverpool match this weekend. The Premier League’s top scorer was missing from the champions’ training session on Thursday amid speculations about his fitness.
The 22-year-old withdrew from the Norway squad for their recent Euro 2024 qualifiers against Spain and Georgia due to a groin injury. While there has been no official update on his condition, it was reported that he travelled to Barcelona for treatment before returning to Manchester.
Haaland’s absence in the pictures posted by City from their recent training session further adds to the doubt surrounding his availability for the important encounter against Jurgen Klopp’s side at the Etihad Stadium. With a game in hand on current league leaders Arsenal, City will be hoping to close the eight points gap with a win.
Meanwhile, City will be without midfielder Phil Foden after he underwent appendix surgery over the weekend.
