Manchester City’s star striker Erling Haaland is set to return to the pitch for their upcoming match against Southampton, according to manager Pep Guardiola.
Haaland had been sidelined with a groin injury that also caused him to miss Norway’s internationals last month.
Despite the upcoming Champions League quarter-final against Bayern Munich, Guardiola has no plans to rest Haaland and is focused on the Premier League match at hand.
Guardiola emphasized the importance of not underestimating Southampton, who have always been a tough opponent for City.
The match against Southampton is an opportunity for City to put pressure on league leaders Arsenal before their match against Liverpool on Sunday.
Guardiola also dismissed any notion of an advantage in the title race due to playing before Arsenal, stating that they simply need to focus on winning their own games.
