Manchester City outplayed Bournemouth yesterday (2-1) in the FA Cup quarter-finals, but the victory came at a high cost.
Details: According to Fabrizio Romano, Manchester City's top scorer Erling Haaland will miss most of the season's final stretch due to an ankle injury.
The exact recovery timeline for the Norwegian forward has not been disclosed, but it is known that he will return only for the concluding matches of the Premier League and will be able to play in the Club World Cup.
After the match against Bournemouth, Haaland left the field on crutches.
This season, the 24-year-old forward has scored 30 goals in 40 matches across all competitions.
Reminder: This entry into the FA Cup semi-finals marks the 20th time in the club's history that Man City has reached this stage.
