Erling Haaland is being assessed ‘day-by-day’ due to an injury.
Manchester City striker Erling Haaland is being assessed “day by day” as he attempts to recover from a foot injury for the Club World Cup next week.
Haaland, 23, has missed City’s previous two games and will be unavailable against Crystal Palace at home on Saturday.
After defeating the Eagles, City will travel to Saudi Arabia to face either Mexico’s Club Leon or Japan’s Urawa Red Diamonds in the semi-finals on Tuesday.
“I’m not concerned. “There is no fracture, only stress,” Pep Guardiola explained.
“He arrived today; he’ll consult with the doctors, and then we’ll see.” According to the physicians, we must take it day by day or week by week and observe how he feels.

“Hopefully, he can travel to Saudi, whether he can play the first game or the second, I don’t know.”
Haaland is City’s best scorer this season, with 19 goals in all competitions, and he leads the Premier League scoring statistics with 14 goals in 15 games.
After winning just one of their last five league games, City is fourth in the Premier League, four points behind leaders Liverpool.
After winning the Triple Crown last season, City has won at least one title since Guardiola took over in 2016.
They will compete in the Club World Cup for the first time after winning the Champions League for the first time.
