Pep Guardiola provides concerning injury update on Erling Haaland
Chelsea and Manchester City face in FA Cup semi-finals on Saturday, April 20, 2024.
Ahead of the game, Pep Guardiola provided update on Erling Haaland.
Haaland came off during the Champions League defeat to Real Madrid. The City star played 90 minute, however, was replaced before the extra time.
“We will see. It was a tough game, 120 minutes,” Guardiola said during the press conference. “A lot of action, high intensity from both sides.
“Erling felt something, a muscular issue and that’s why he said he could not continue, Kevin felt exhausted and after what happened with injured for five months, that is normal.
“The doctor said it was a little bit niggles [with Haaland] and we will see the evolution in the next hours. The amount of games we are playing this season and the previous season and not much recovery and extra time and high intensity and the way we played, put a lot of pressure on our game. They are human beings, not machines. Sometimes the fatigue is there.”
