Erling Haaland sustained a facial injury while on international duty with Norway and required three stitches after being struck by a bus door, according to 90min.
The report gives few further details about the circumstances, but the incident appears to have occurred while Haaland was travelling with the Norway squad. The injury was dealt with promptly and does not, on current information, appear to threaten his availability for upcoming fixtures.
Haaland remains one of the most prominent players in European football, having established himself as the Premier League's most reliable scorer since joining Manchester City. Any disruption to his fitness draws immediate attention both at club and international level, though a three-stitch facial wound is, in clinical terms, a minor procedure.
Norway's upcoming international schedule will determine whether the injury has any practical consequence. If he is fit to play, the episode is likely to pass without lasting significance. Should further complications emerge, City will be watching closely — the club has invested heavily in his continued availability and any prolonged absence would reshape their forward planning.
For now, 90min's account suggests the situation is contained. There is no indication from the wire that medical staff have placed any restrictions on his participation.
