WHAT CAME ABOUT?
In City’s last two matches, against AC Milan and Barcelona, the scorer was taken off at halftime, while his teammates were given longer runs out. With just over two weeks to go until the start of the new Premier League season, boss Guardiola is worried about the Norwegian player’s health.

THIS IS WHAT PEP GUARDIOLA SAID
“Erling is not happy,” he said after the 2-2 draw with Barcelona. We don’t want to risk anything. But he has to take a step with training and minutes at some point. The season is almost here. We don’t want to loose him for three weeks or a month because he has muscle pain. That would be a bad thing.
“He didn’t play in the second half because he didn’t feel well.” Sixty-seven percent of the team is on vacation. This is why we need the football players. We do have other options, though, and Oscar (Bobb) does a great job again. A lot of things make us happy.
THE BIGGER PICTURE
This is the second straight year that Haaland has scored the most goals in the Premier League. He has been a big part of City’s recent success, winning more trophies. It would be terrible for the reigning champs if he couldn’t play at the start of the 2024–25 season. It would be great for their opponents.
