Manchester City received a concerning blow as Erling Haaland, the prolific striker, was spotted limping during a training session with the Norwegian national team, as reported by Metro.
Truth Live News reports that Norway are slated to play friendly matches against Czech Republic and Slovakia during the final international break of the season.
Haaland, among the Premier League stars summoned for international duty, returned home for these fixtures.
However, a video footage emerged from Monday’s training session depicting Haaland visibly discomforted, hobbling across the pitch, indicating a potential knee issue.
City fervently hope that Haaland has escaped any serious injury, especially with the Premier League champions scheduled to face Arsenal immediately after the international break on Sunday, March 31.
As the league’s top contenders, Arsenal currently lead the table, with just one point separating them from Liverpool and City, with ten matches remaining in the season.
Haaland played a superb role in City’s recent FA Cup quarter-final victory over Newcastle United, although he was substituted off during the second half.
