Manchester City’s coach, Pep Guardiola, has confirmed that forward, Erling Haaland, will miss Wednesday’s match against Sevilla, because he is “not fit.”
Haaland, who missed last weekend’s Premier League match against Leicester City, is however likely to return to the pitch for Saturday’s Premier League clash with Fulham, according to Guardiola, who made the statement to the media in his pre-match press conference on Tuesday.
Haaland was substituted at half-time in the midweek goalless draw with Borussia Dortmund.
Guardiola said, “Tomorrow he is not available. He feels better compared to Saturday and Sunday but he is not 100% and we don’t want to take a risk, it makes no sense.”Hopefully he will be back for Fulham. Every day he is feeling better.”
