Manchester City's Erling Haaland faces injury concerns ahead of their Premier League match against Liverpool. The 24-year-old striker left the game midway through the second half of Norway's 2-1 loss to Portugal in the Nations League, signaling to the bench before being substituted at the 67th minute. Jørgen Strand Larsen replaced Haaland, but the extent of his injury remains unclear.
Haaland has netted seven goals thus far this season, making his availability crucial for Manchester City, who face Liverpool on Sunday. City manager Enzo Maresca will be closely monitoring Haaland's condition, as the striker's absence could prove detrimental to the team. Earlier in the Norway match, Kristoffer Ajer put his side ahead in the 36th minute, followed by goals from João Cancelo and Gonçalo Ramos for Portugal.
Portugal advanced to the Nations League quarter-finals with this victory, while Norway remains at the bottom of the group with two games left to play.
