Haaland was ruled out of Sunday’s trip to Luton Town due to a ‘stress’ issue with his foot. “Stress, no fracture. Please don’t ask if he broke his foot. It’s just stress. We have to take it day by day, week by week. He could be ready for Crystal Palace. Hopefully he will be ready for Saudi Arabia,” said Guardiola on Haaland’s injury.
Reacting to Doku’s fitness, the City boss added: “Muscular. It’s not a big issue like Kevin [De Bruyne]. We have to think about how explosive he is, we have to be careful. Maybe in one week, two weeks he will be ready.”
