Man City get Erling Haaland injury update as squad train ahead of Liverpool FC clash

 

Erling Haaland appeared to miss Manchester City training on Thursday, throwing his participation against Liverpool this weekend 

Haaland is recovering from a groin issue picked up in the FA Cup win over Burnley that forced him to withdraw from international duty with Norway shortly after linking up with the squad. Haaland's father then confirmed the striker had been to City's partner hospital in Barcelona for tests, admitting that he was 'touch-and-go' for the Liverpool game.

Haaland was not in pictures published by City on Wednesday as the squad rejoined after the international break, although that could not confirm whether he actually trained or not. On Thursday, footage showed that Haaland was absent from the group, suggesting he is not yet recovered from his injury.
