Manchester City coach Pep Guardiola raised concerns about the readiness of his top scorer Erling Haaland, after the friendly draw against Barcelona, which ended with the latter winning on penalties in the United States, as Haaland was substituted in the first half of the last two friendly matches against Milan and Barcelona, while other players got longer periods. Guardiola said: “Erling is not comfortable. We do not want to risk. But sooner or later he has to take a step forward with training and minutes. The season is coming. He has muscle problems, we do not want to risk losing him for 3 weeks or a month. That would be a problem. He was not well and that is why he did not play the second half. 60 or 70% of the team are on vacation.”
