Erling Haaland injury worries resurface ahead of Manchester City’s clash with Liverpool

Let’s talk about the recent Erling Haaland injury. The striker faced a scare on international duty, aggravating his ankle in a friendly match just days before the crucial fixture against Liverpool. Despite the discomfort, he persevered till the end of the game. This incident marks his second ankle problem this month, following his early exit during the Bournemouth match on November 4.

Haaland informed Pep Guardiola that the initial pain had diminished within 24 hours after the Bournemouth game. However, during the Faroe Islands match, he seemed to be in considerable pain again.

Norway’s team doctor, Ola Sand, highlighted the similarity of this injury to the previous one against Bournemouth, stating that Haaland tends to be vulnerable to such twists in his ankle.

Currently under observation and receiving treatment, Haaland’s condition remains uncertain for the upcoming matches. City’s sports therapist, Mario Pafundi, who often accompanies Haaland during international duties, is monitoring the situation closely.

While Norway has an upcoming game against Scotland, it holds little significance for their Euro qualifiers, with neither Spain nor Scotland within reach for them in the group standings.

Manchester City eagerly anticipates Haaland’s return for the crucial fixture against Liverpool, given his exceptional form this season. With 17 goals in 18 games, his presence has been instrumental for the team.

Haaland’s track record against Liverpool, scoring twice in five encounters, further underscores his significance. As the Premier League leaders by a slim margin, City aims to maintain their position atop the table against their closest rivals, Liverpool.
