"Two days ago in training he had some problems and a little injury. Not a big issue but [he's] not ready for today. We are without one top striker and we are playing with another top striker."
Manchester City travels to Leeds United without star striker Erling Haaland, who has scored 22 goals in 27 appearances this season. Haaland sustained a minor injury during training two days prior and is not ready for the match. Manager Pep Guardiola confirmed the issue is not serious but warrants precaution. Rayan Cherki starts in Haaland's place, joining Omar Marmoush and Antoine Semenyo in City's forward line. City aims to close the gap to league leaders Arsenal to two points with a victory. Phil Foden, Savino, and Jeremy Doku provide attacking options from the bench.
