Pep Guardiola has shared detail on Erling Haaland’s injury

However, speaking in his pre-match press conference Guardiola revealed Haaland was still not firing on all cylinders and revealed the extent of his injury.

He said: “He’s not perfect still. So we’ll see tomorrow, Saturday. But it’s getting better.

“It’s important the bone is not broken, just the ligament was damaged a little bit.

“So it’s not perfect right now, but I don’t know, in one week, 10 days, everything can happen. It can change.

“If he feels good, playing in the national team is so important for the players.”;

Haaland has been in terrific form for City this season, scoring 23 goals in just 17 games in all competitions.
