Manchester City's star striker Erling Haaland has taken to social media to update fans on his ankle injury.

The Norway international is set to be sidelined for seven weeks due to the injury he picked up during Sunday's FA Cup quarter-final victory over Bournemouth. Haaland, who has netted 30 goals this season, will consequently miss tonight's clash with Leicester City and the upcoming match against Manchester United on Sunday afternoon.

Haaland's injury is likely to boost Chelsea's top-four hopes with Enzo Maresca's side currently a point clear of the City in the Premier League table. And the 24-year-old took to social media recently to assure fans that he's doing everything possible to speed up his recovery.

"I'll be back," Haaland posted on social media platforms X (was Twitter) and Instagram - alongside a picture of him in a protective boot and holding two crutches.

The reigning champions are set to face Nottingham Forest in the FA Cup semi-finals later this month - as they aim for a third consecutive final at the iconic Wembley Stadium.

"The doctors told me between five and seven weeks so, hopefully, the end of the season and Club World Cup, he will be ready," Guardiola said this week when he was asked about Haaland's injury.
