Man City’s chances of participating in the January transfer market increase ↑

 Sports media ‘Sports Bible’ reported on the 12th (Korean time) that “Manchester City could enter the transfer market in January to find a replacement for Erling Haaland.”


Manchester City won 2-1 against Luton Town in the 16th round of the 2023/24 English Premier League (EPL) held at Kenilworth Road in Luton, England, on the 10th (Korean time).

Haaland, who is the Premier League's top scorer with 14 goals, was missing from Manchester City's squad, which is trying to bounce back from a four-game winless streak. He has started all of Manchester City's league games so far this season. This was Haaland's first game out due to injury, and it is unclear how long he will be sidelined.

Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola said after the Luton game that Haaland was unlikely to return for the weekend's Premier League match against Crystal Palace, but could return in time for next week's Club World Cup in Saudi Arabia.

Guardiola said of Haaland's injury: "There was a bone stress reaction in his foot and he felt it after the last game. He cannot play. I don't know (the length of the injury). Week by week, day by day, we will see what happens. “He said.

He continued: “We definitely play with 11 men. Because Haaland has played an important role since joining. But these things happen during the season. There are a lot of things to adapt to, including injuries, suspensions, and problems. “Julian Alvarez will play (center forward),” he added.

According to the outlet, there is money available to sign a replacement in the January transfer window if Haaland's injury is more serious than first feared. Therefore, depending on the duration of the injury, Manchester City will decide whether to buy a new striker or not.

Meanwhile, De Bruyne is almost back to normal form after missing the entire season due to injury, and given Haaland's absence, his return is expected to be timely.
