Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>Manchester City will be without the influential duo of Erling Haaland and Kevin de Bruyne for the Club World Cup.<\/p>\n

According to Goal, Haaland\u2019s foot injury has ruled him out of the tournament.<\/p>\n

The Norway striker had travelled to Saudi Arabia with the rest of the squad, but has been removed from City\u2019s squad list for the tournament.<\/p>\n

Pep Guardiola\u2019s men play the semi-final on Tuesday and if they win, there will be a potential final against Fluminense on Friday.<\/p>\n

De Bruyne and Jeremy Doku were also scratched from the list, dashing hopes that City\u2019s Belgian midfielder could make his comeback this week.<\/p>\n

City fans will be concerned that Haaland\u2019s injury continues to be an issue. Initially ruled out on the morning of City\u2019s trip to Luton, Haaland was understandably absent from a Champions League trip to Belgrade but was once again left out for last weekend\u2019s slip-up against Crystal Palace.<\/p>\n
