Latest Man City Injury News as Erling Haaland Update Given for Nottingham Forest Clash - Nottinghamshire Live
Manchester City striker Erling Haaland sustained a minor ankle knock in training and missed the Leeds match; his return is expected to be assessed ahead of the Nottingham Forest game.
Pep Guardiola said Erling Haaland 'feels much better' and could return as soon as Wednesday for the Premier League home game with Nottingham Forest.
During the Thursday session, Haaland picked up a minor problem in training and missed the trip to Elland Road, Guardiola said.
Guardiola said after the game that assessments on Monday and Tuesday will determine Nico O'Reilly's fitness; he will be checked before any selection decision.
Guardiola acknowledged Manchester City are hopeful Haaland's injury is not serious, but said 'I dont have an answer right now' amid three crunch games in eight days.
With a trip to Newcastle on Saturday, Guardiola warned the last 10 games and six fixtures this month are decisive as City trail Arsenal by five points before facing Forest on Wednesday.
