Pep Guardiola unsure about Erling Haaland injury absence
"I don't have an answer right now. He was not ready for today but we have four days before Nottingham Forest and after, three days to the FA Cup at Newcastle at 8pm. Thank you so much for that time, to go better to Madrid with less recovery, thank you."
"The Norway striker missed City's 1-0 Premier League victory at Leeds on Saturday with an unspecified problem sustained in training prior to the game. Manager Pep Guardiola did not give a clear indication of when the 25-year-old might return but the Press Association understands the issue is not a major concern."
"Haaland, who has scored 29 goals in all competitions this season, will be assessed on Monday and Tuesday ahead of Wednesday's clash with Nottingham Forest at the Etihad Stadium."

Haaland will undergo assessment on Monday and Tuesday ahead of Wednesday's home fixture against Nottingham Forest. The 25-year-old striker has scored 29 goals across all competitions this season. Midfielder Nico O'Reilly also sustained an ankle injury during the Leeds match and requires evaluation.
