Manchester city manager pep guardiola has given an update on erling haaland’s health and jeremy doku’s performance. On sunday, the two missed city’s come-from-behind victory over luton town 2-1. Last weekend, doku limped off during the champions’ 3-all draw with tottenham. Yesterday, haaland lost to france in the world cup.
Guardiola gave an update on the pair after his team’s victory. When asked about haaland, he told the media: “there is no pain, there is no break.” Please don’t ask if he broke his foot. It’s just stress. We have to do it day by day, week by week. He may be able to attend the crystal palace, but not necessarily saudi arabia. He needs to be prepared. During the season, there are injuries and suspensions.
I spoke with him yesterday and he said he feels much better after villa failed to function properly. He may be able to travel to crystal palace. Pep guardiola also shared an update on doku’s illness. He told the media that it was a minor muscle injury. It isn’t a big deal like kevin .We have to think about how explosive he is, and we have to be vigilant. Guardiola’s update comes as a positive note to the pair.
This season, manchester city’s squad has included haaland and doku. With the fifa club world cup approaching, the treble winners will be hoping that both will play a part in saudi arabia.
The european champions are hoping to see haaland return to action next weekend against crystal palace at the etihad, where they will play. Doku is expected to miss the game next weekend.
With the european champions facing red star belgrade in midweek and having already secured top spot in group g of the uefa champions league, the two will not be put in jeopardy.
