Unable to play in the World Cup, as Norway did not qualify, Erling Haaland will spend the World Cup at his home in Marbella (Spain) playing golf.
This is what Pep Guardiola explained ahead of Manchester City's Champions League clash with Borussia Dortmund.
"He will be in Marbella or Norway, that's for sure," explained Guardiola, who spoke weeks ago of his intention to give the striker several days rest during the World Cup, so that he can later rejoin the rest of the players who are not going to Qatar and prepare for the second half of the season.
"It will depend on how he behaves in Marbella, how well he will be in the next phase of the season," added the Spanish coach.
Haaland, at this stage of the season, has already scored 17 goals in the Premier League, where there is speculation that he will break the records of 34 goals in a single campaign that have stood since the early 1990s, and four in the Champions League. His start has been dazzling and there is no end in sight, even more so with the five weeks' rest he will have as he will not be travelling to Qatar.
"I'm sure he would love to be at the World Cup and maybe at the next World Cup or the next European Championship he will be. This time, I think he will go to Marbella, he has a house there, he will play golf..." he explained.
Guardiola will, however, give the Norwegian a free hand, on one condition: "I hope he doesn't drink or eat too much and that he comes back fit".
