Fabrizio Romano, a former player for Manchester City, has confirmed his death.
Done Deal: Osimhen to Man City was authorized today, valued at £199 million, with Haaland as a replacement.
Erling Haaland and Kevin De Bruyne have been benched by Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola for Wednesday’s Premier League matchup at the Etihad Stadium against Aston Villa.
On Wednesday night, the treble winners hope to rekindle their hopes of winning a fourth straight Premier League title after losing significant ground to Arsenal and Liverpool in back-to-back draws.
At the Etihad Stadium on Sunday afternoon, Manchester City and Arsenal were held to a scoreless draw. As a result, the Sky Blues are now two points behind the Gunners and three points behind the leaders of the Premier League.
If Aston Villa wins at the Etihad Stadium, they could pass Manchester City by two points and advance significantly in the UEFA Champions League. Unai Emery’s team is the only one to have defeated Guardiola’s squad in any competition.
Since a 1-0 loss at Villa Park in early December, when Leon Bailey’s deflected effort in the second half gave the home team three points, City has gone undefeated in all competitions.
Prior to a loss in the rematch, Guardiola’s team had a strong record against Villa. However, with the Blues’ title defense at stake, the 53-year-old is said to have made two important selections in advance of Wednesday night’s match.
Reputable X user “FPL Maine Road” has information indicating that Kevin De Bruyne and Erling Haaland do not start for Manchester City on Wednesday night when they play Aston Villa at the Etihad Stadium.
Both players started Sunday’s goalless draw against Arsenal, but there have been recent questions about their fitness after De Bruyne’s groin injury kept him from playing for Belgium on international duty and Haaland had to leave an early training session with Norway due to a problem.
Haaland has only managed two goals in his last five games for Manchester City, and the Blues have not scored in any of their last three contests.
After a five-month layoff following hamstring surgery in August, De Bruyne has made seven starts for Manchester City.
In addition to playing Villa on Wednesday, City will play Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park on Saturday afternoon. They will also play Real Madrid in a crucial first-leg match of the UEFA Champions League quarterfinal on Tuesday.
