Erling Haaland, Phil Foden - Man City injury latest and return dates ahead of Southampton

Manchester City are close to having a fully-fit squad for manager Pep Guardiola to select from after Erling Haaland returned to training.

The striker missed the 4-1 win over Liverpool last weekend as he recovered from a groin injury but he joined the rest of his City teammates in training this week. Haaland also pulled out of the Norway national team squad due to the problem picked up during the FA Cup quarter-final victory against Vincent Kompany's Burnley.

The 22-year-old will now be fit to feature against Southampton, leaving Phil Foden as the only City player sidelined. The England international continues to recover from appendix surgery during the international break. Here's the latest injury news from the Etihad.
