Manchester City fans are holding their breath after Erling Haaland was spotted leaving the Vitality Stadium in a protective boot, sparking fears over his fitness.
The Norwegian goal machine, who has already bagged 30 goals this season, picked up an ankle injury during City's FA Cup quarter-final victory over Bournemouth. Despite scoring in the match and missing a penalty, Haaland was substituted just past the hour mark, making way for Omar Marmoush, who later secured the win.
Concerns escalated when Haaland was later seen hobbling on crutches towards the team bus, raising speculation about the severity of his injury. With City still in contention for multiple trophies, supporters are anxiously awaiting updates, fearing the possibility of a season-ending setback for their star striker.
As of now, the club has not provided an official injury update, but Pep Guardiola will be hoping to have his talisman fit in time for upcoming key fixtures against Leicester City and Manchester United.
