Story updated
The story in brief
35-second readCan Erling Haaland make the difference for Manchester City at Anfield on Sunday? Haaland was taken off 67 minutes into Norway's 2-1 UEFA Nations League defeat to Portugal at the weekend, having signalled to the bench to request a substitution as Jørgen Strand Larsen came on for the Manchester City forward.
Norway manager Ståle Solbakken said that Haaland was among a pool of players who left the camp in the immediate aftermath of the defeat to Portugal, telling reporters they flew off in "a plane you and I can't afford".
Manchester City return to action on Sunday as they face Andoni Iraola and Liverpool at Anfield in their first match since an independent commission declared the club guilty of breaching the Premier League's financial rules on 114 counts between 2009-18.
