Erling Haaland is not in the Manchester City squad for the Blues' Premier League clash against Leicester on Saturday.
Haaland's involvement in the fixture was cast into doubt on Friday when Pep Guardiola revealed the striker had been struggling with a foot complaint and a slight fever. The manager said he would make a final decision during Friday afternoon's training session, and that decision turned out to be not to risk the striker.
It's the first time this season that City will start a Premier League match without Haaland in the starting XI. His only previous absence came a few weeks ago in Copenhagen, when he stayed on the bench during City's goalless draw against FC Copenhagen.
