Handed rest Haaland was given three days to rest and will miss Wednesday's cup clash, per manager Enzo Maresca.

Impact Haaland has been brilliant, as he always is, to start this campaign. He is up to 13 goals in 12 matches across the Champions League and Premier League, and is now being handed a break to recover. City have an incredibly busy schedule so any sort of time to recover and get back to full fitness will be a great boon for Haaland. He's expected to be fully available for a clash with Brighton at the weekend.

Scores lone goal in defeat Haaland scored one goal to go with three shots (two on goal) in Saturday's 2-1 loss to Aston Villa.

Impact Haaland scored once during Saturday's 2-1 Premier League defeat at Aston Villa, providing Manchester City's only goal in a frustrating away result. The Norwegian equalized in the 52nd minute, rising above Victor Lindelof to head home Iliman Ndiaye's cross from the right flank after City had trailed since the opening six minutes. However, Nicolas Jackson restored Villa's lead just eight minutes later, leaving Haaland's contribution insufficient to prevent defeat despite extending his goalscoring form in the Premier League. He now has scored nine goals in eight Premier League appearances this campaign.

Impact Haaland has fully recovered from the foot problem that raised concerns about his availability earlier in the week, with manager Maresca confirming that the Norwegian striker is ready to start Saturday's encounter against Aston Villa. The forward was included on the bench for Tuesday's Champions League victory over AEK Athens but remained an unused substitute, allowing him additional recovery time ahead of the weekend. His return to full fitness represents a significant boost for Manchester City's attack, particularly given his outstanding production this season. Haaland has already recorded 12 goals from 41 shots, including 10 on target, across nine appearances in all competitions. With no remaining fitness restrictions, he should reclaim his usual starting role and remain the focal point of City's attack against Aston Villa.

Could start Saturday Haaland is ready to start against Aston Villa on Saturday, coach Enzo Maresca confirmed after Tuesday's UCL win over AEK Athens, "He's OK to start on Saturday," per City Xtra.

Impact Haaland's presence on the bench against the Greek side was great news after he had been questionable with a foot issue, although he didn't play yet, aiming to find a bigger role in the next EPL match. This is a positive update for a Manchester City attack that benefits greatly from the striker's elite finishing quality and that turned to youngster Floyd Samba in the midweek game. Assuming the foot issue is no longer a problem, Haaland will have strong chances to increase his current tallies of 41 shots (10 on target) and 12 goals in nine appearances across all competitions.

Impact Haaland scored twice against Ipswich before finishing the match with a noticeable limp after taking a blow to his left foot late in the contest. The Norwegian striker has been in outstanding form this season, recording 12 goals across 10 appearances in all competitions, making his potential absence a significant concern for Manchester City. Despite missing Monday's training session, coach Enzo Maresca indicated that Haaland could still be available Tuesday, although a final decision remains pending.

Impact Haaland appears to be recovering well after leaving the pitch with a noticeable limp following Saturday's victory over Ipswich Town, during which he scored twice. Coach Enzo Maresca initially downplayed concerns about the striker's condition after the match, and his latest comments suggest the foot problem is improving ahead of Tuesday's European fixture. However, the Norwegian's availability remains uncertain, with the coaching staff expected to assess his fitness during Monday's training session before making a final decision. Haaland has enjoyed an outstanding start to the 2026/27 campaign, scoring 12 goals in nine appearances across the Premier League and Champions League. Given his importance to City's attack and the upcoming league encounter against Aston Villa on Saturday, Maresca could opt to manage his workload against AEK Athens even if he is medically cleared to play.

He fired off eight shots and nearly made it a hat trick with a late chance at the back post. It was a frustrating night for City, but Haaland was the one bright spot as the focal point of their attack.
