He limped off with a thigh injury in the 2-1 win over Luton Town, but manager Pep Guardiola has yet to say how long the Norwegian forward will be sidelined. Let’s take a look at what’s happening each week and each day. Erling has played a very important role since he arrived here. That’s for sure. But we see that throughout the season. “Whether it’s injuries, doping, problems, we have to adapt.”There were no official sources or updated information about his injuries, so a close look revealed that he was not the only member of the family. Haaland’s brother Astor and daughter Isabelle Haugseng Johansen reacted in the same way, wondering if she will be available for the next games. As it looks now, he stays out of all their teams.
Their midweek journey in the Champions League is dead rubber, because they have already qualified for the next round as group winners and they must also have more than enough to refrain from the Etihad at the weekend. Will he be able to play in the semi-finals of the Club World Cup on December 19? It remains to be seen, but with this being a trophy the club has never won before, they will want their star man to be fit.
Otherwise, they will have to wait until the match against Everton on December 27 or Sheffield United on December 30. He will then have just over a week to prepare for the FA Cup third round tie against Huddersfield, with another week off before the two-week break at Newcastle. So, if he can’t play in the next matches and the trip to Saudi Arabia, he can come back for one of those matches. In any case, given his scoring record and the slim margins in the title race, the drop in points due to his absence could be significant.
Erling Haaland’s father, Alfie, has stirred fears that his son may not be available for Manchester City’s upcoming games by removing him from his Fantasy Football team.
Haaland, 23, has scored 19 goals in 22 games this season, following an incredible 52 last season.
However, City are still not at their best as they are four points behind fourth-placed Liverpool in the Premier League after 16 games.
City have two games left to qualify for the annual Club World Cup, with the winner from each continent advancing to the tournament in Saudi Arabia later this month.
