Erling Haaland has been left out of Manchester City's squad to take on Leicester City.
The Norwegian, who has scored 17 goals in 11 Premier League matches this season, picked up an injury in City's goalless draw against Borussia Dortmund on Tuesday evening and will now sit out their trip to the King Power Stadium. Pep Guardiola decided to take off Haaland at half-time in Dortmund and revealed that he had a foot injury and minor fever.
Asked if he was missing for the same reasons he was withdrawn against Dortmund, Guardiola told BT Sport ahead of the game: “Yeah, [He] recovered from the fever, from being tired but not from the knock.”
