Man City given major injury scare as Erling Haaland 'limps out of training' on Norway duty

Manchester City have been given a major injury scare after Erling Haaland appeared to limp out of Norway training.

City's stars have jetted off around the world this week for the international break, but it looks like Pep Guardiola has already been dealt a huge blow.

On Tuesday footage emerged on social media appearing to show Haaland limping off the pitch while training with Norway.

The striker missed 12 matches during December and January after suffering a stress injury in his foot.

He returned to action at the end of January, but he looked to be in some discomfort while training with his international teammates.

City's first game after the International break is a huge Premier League clash with Arsenal on March 31.

In April the treble winners will face Aston Villa, Crystal Palace, Nottingham Forest and Luton Town in the league, as well as a two-legged Champions League quarter-final tie against Real Madrid and an FA Cup semi-final against Chelsea at Wembley.

Guardiola's side are currently third in the league standings, one point behind Liverpool and leaders Arsenal.

Haaland is on course to win the Premier League Golden Boot for a second season in a row, having scored 18 goals in 23 outings this term.

Last season the Norwegian star scored 36 league goals, breaking the record for the most goals scored by one player in a single Premier League campaign.

This season Haaland has scored 29 goals and provided six assists in 34 games in all competitions.

Haaland is due to feature in Norway's friendlies against Czech Republic and Slovakia over the next week.

Asked specifically about Haaland's expected involvement in the two friendly games, Guardiola said earlier this week: "He is not my player anymore from now on, what they will decide will be fine.

"They know that they fought a lot and train a lot, a lot of adrenaline and concentration to arrive in this position. They know they are friendly games and they have to handle it wisely. Hopefully they can do it."
