Pep Guardiola has revealed for the first time that Erling Haaland fractured a bone in his foot as he played down fears the striker could suffer a recurrence of the injury issues that dented his time at Borussia Dortmund.

The striker is back in full training with Manchester City and is in line to make his return to action against Burnley on Wednesday, at which point it will be around eight weeks since he picked up the foot injury.

Guardiola has now said the injury did turn out to be a fracture that has taken time to heal.
