Erling Haaland assures Manchester City fans of full fitness ahead of title run-in
Erling Haaland has sent a resounding message to Manchester City fans ahead of their crucial title run-in, asserting his readiness to contribute fully despite recent fitness concerns.
The prolific striker, who was sidelined with a minor muscle complaint following City’s Champions League quarter-final heartbreak, has declared himself fit and eager to make his mark in the team’s final five fixtures of the season.
“I’m ready, I had a bit of a problem and it’s not nice to bounce back when we went out to Madrid in the Champions League,” he said.
“It’s been scratching inside of me to get back and now I’m back and feeling good. I’m ready to attack the last five finals.”
Haaland’s declaration comes in response to doubts raised by City manager Pep Guardiola regarding his fitness status. Guardiola previously opted to start the Norwegian sensation on the bench in their recent clash against Nottingham Forest, citing fitness considerations.
However, Haaland silenced any lingering uncertainty by coming off the bench to secure a crucial goal, reaffirming his impact on the pitch.
With the title race heating up and every point crucial, Haaland’s return to full fitness couldn’t have come at a better time for the Sky Blues.
As they prepare to navigate through the final hurdles of the season, Haaland’s determination and goal-scoring prowess promise to be invaluable assets in City’s quest for domestic glory.
