Pep Guardiola outlines Erling Haaland's Man City debut plan vs Bayern Munich

Erling Haaland will be assessed on Saturday to see if he can make his Manchester City debut in their pre-season clash with Bayern Munich this weekend, Pep Guardiola has confirmed.

New signing Haaland, 22, was an unused substitute in the friendly win over Club America in Houston on Wednesday, and Guardiola said after the game that he was never in line to feature. The Norwegian didn't warm up with the City team and wasn't dressed in training gear all night at NRG Park.
