"Erling Haaland is a potential injury doubt this weekend after his collision with the post against Aston Villa last weekend. The centre-forward has bagged 11 goals for Manchester City already this season - at least five more than anyone else in the Premier League. But Haaland collided with the goalpost in painful fashion against Aston Villa last weekend and did not feature against Swansea City in the Carabao Cup in midweek."
"Guardiola was asked following Wednesday night's 3-1 win in south Wales whether Haaland would be fit to play a part against Andoni Iraola's in-form Cherries. The City boss simply replied: "I don't know yet. I hope so." Haaland was subsequently included in a picture posted to City's social media accounts on Thursday showing several players posing following a training session, suggesting he is not feeling the effects of his collision too seriously."
Erling Haaland may miss Manchester City's next Premier League match after colliding with the goalpost against Aston Villa and sitting out the Carabao Cup tie with Swansea. Haaland has scored 11 goals this season, at least five more than any other Premier League player. He also missed the previous cup round at Huddersfield, an omission that may have been planned. Pep Guardiola said he is unsure whether Haaland will be fit to face Bournemouth and expressed hope that he will be available. A training photo showed Haaland present, but availability remains unconfirmed. Midfielder Rodri is also described as not ready yet.
