The Argentine striker, whose importance in the team has grown since he started to cover the absence of Kevin De Bruyne in Pep Guardiola’s lineups, recently saw how his teammate replaced him in the FA Cup game against Huddersfield, which would have been compensated by new events affecting him at Manchester City.

During the last press conference given by Pep Guardiola, the Catalan manager revealed that Kevin De Bruyne could be back in the lineup to face Newcastle, but he unfortunately revealed that Erling Haaland will continue one more week on the sidelines due to a bone injury suffered in his foot that has kept him out of the pitch since 9 December.
