Waiting for investigations, the City hopes to recover the Norwegian for the Club World Cup: to evaluate its presence against the Azzurri on 6 June for the qualifications of the 2026 World Cup
Erling Haaland stopped. How much is not yet known, but the left ankle problem is serious enough to put the last two months of the season at risk with Manchester City, enough why his presence in Norway-Italy on June 6th is at risk, the already decisive debut of Spalletti’s Azzurri in world qualifying.
The press release
–
“Manchester City confirms that Erling Haaland has a left ankle injury – wrote the club in a released press release at 21 Italians -. Erling has been subjected to investigations in Manchester on Monday morning and now he will see a specialist to confirm the exact entity of the accident. The exact prognosis is still to be established, but the expectations are that Erling can recover in time to have a further role in the season, including the World Championship. for clubs of this summer “.
The situation
–
Haaland got hurt yesterday, at 57 ‘of Bournemouth-City, a quarter of Fa Cup in which he scored his 30th goal of the season in 40 appearances with the Guardiola club. The left ankle was crushed in a contrast of the game with Cook, the captain of the Cherries: Haaland, with attention to the field, tried to continue, but after a couple of minutes he sat on the ground and asked for the change. At the end of the game he was seen to leave the Vitality Stadium with crutches and his left foot protected by a guardian. When he showed up in the press room after the match, Guardiola said he had not talked about neither with Haaland nor with the doctors.
The return
–
From the City transpires a cautious optimism that the 24 -year -old can recover in time to play again this season in the Premier, who has his last day on May 25 and in which Guardiola’s team hopes to obtain a placement in the Champions League that has been playing for 13 years, perhaps conquering the FA Cup in which on 26 or 27 April he will play at Wembley the semifinal against the Nottingham Forest. The alarm for Norway-Italy, however, is more than legitimate: Haaland will have to see a specialist, understand exactly how serious the problem is and how much it will take to recover. If he played before the end of the premier, Norway will probably call him for the match with Italy, but the fact that Erling can play it or not is still everything to be established. Certainly his complicated injury, and not a little, the attempt to relaunch the City.
