ISTANBUL

Erling Haaland has been forced to withdraw from the Norway squad over a groin injury, the Norwegian Football Federation confirmed on Tuesday.

"We hoped that this was just a familiarity that would carry over to Saturday, but after doing tests and examinations yesterday it became clear that he will not make it to the games against Spain and Georgia," a statement said.

"It is better that he receives medical follow-up at the club."

Manchester City's inform-forward picked up a groin injury in a FA Cup match against Burnley on Saturday. Haaland scored a hat-trick in the 6-0 huge win to guide his team to the semifinals.

The 22-year-old has produced 42 goals in 37 appearances for the Sky Blues so far.

The Striker netted five goals in Tuesday's 7-0 win over RB Leipzig to become the youngest player to reach 30 Champions League goals.

He also played for Borussia Dortmund from 2020-2022.
