Injured Haaland pulls out of Norway squad to face Scotland


Erling Haaland has pulled out of the Norway squad to face Scotland in Sunday's Euro 2024 qualifier due to an ankle injury.

Norway say the injury to the Manchester City striker is not serious, although he is unavailable for the game against Scotland because "he is in so much pain" and his function is "somewhat restricted".

Haaland, who will hope to recover for City's Premier League game against Liverpool on Saturday November 25, suffered the problem against Faroe Islands on Thursday.

Norway will not be calling up a replacement for Haaland, says manager Stale Solbakken.
