Manchester City striker Erling Haaland will miss the upcoming Carabao Cup match against Watford on Wednesday. According to Goal, Haaland has returned to Norway due to a bereavement.
The 24-year-old has been given leave by City to attend the funeral of a family friend, Ivar Eggja, who passed away earlier this month.
Eggja was a close confidant of Erling Haaland and played a significant role in both his career and personal life, providing guidance and support.
