Manchester City Faces Haaland Injury Worry Ahead of Liverpool
Manchester City is facing concerns regarding the fitness of striker Erling Haaland after he limped off during Norway's UEFA Nations League clash with Portugal. Haaland requested a substitution in the second half, with Jorgen Strand Larsen replacing him in the 67th minute.
Prior to this incident, Haaland had played the full 90 minutes in Norway's previous three fixtures during the international break, scoring twice in a 3-2 victory over Denmark and once in a 2-1 defeat to Portugal. City manager Enzo Maresca is hopeful that Haaland's injury is not serious as they prepare for their Premier League trip to Liverpool on October 11.
Haaland has had a strong start to the season, netting seven goals in seven appearances across all competitions. Additionally, Manchester City will be without Phil Foden, who is serving a suspension due to a red card, and there are fitness concerns regarding Nico O’Reilly and Antoine Semenyo as well.
