Premier League news as Pep Guardiola responds to Erling Haaland Man City rumours
A round-up of today's Premier League headlines on Tuesday, April 19.
Pep Guardiola has refused to comment on reports claiming Manchester City are closing in on a deal for Borussia Dortmund striker Erling Haaland.
It has been claimed City are poised to trigger the Norwegian's £63million release clause after agreeing personal terms, including weekly wages of £500,000 per week, with the 21-year-old's representatives.
City have long been linked with Haaland, who is one of the game's hottest properties, but manager Guardiola would not be drawn on the speculation. Speaking at a press conference, the City boss said: "No answer to your question."
Pushed further, he added: "No answer about these questions. I have another concern and business in my head right now (than) to think what will happen in this club next season."
Everton have Yerry Mina and Donny Van De Beek back available for Wednesday's Premier League clash with Leicester at Goodison Park.
Defender Mina is fit after missing out since early February due to a quadriceps injury, while on-loan midfielder Van De Beek can be called upon again following a minor thigh issue and being ineligible for the 1-0 win over his parent club Manchester United last time out.
Nathan Patterson (ankle), Tom Davies (hamstring) and Andros Townsend (knee) continue with their recoveries. Leicester boss Brendan Rodgers expects to have the same squad available as he did for Sunday's dramatic 2-1 defeat at Newcastle.
Rodgers made eight changes at St James' Park in the wake of last Thursday night's 2-1 Europa Conference League win at PSV Eindhoven. Striker Jamie Vardy is still struggling with a knee injury, while Wilfred Ndidi, Danny Ward and Ryan Bertrand (all knee) are also out.
