Erling Haaland May Miss Man City’s Brentford Clash Due to Personal Loss

Erling Haaland Could Miss Man City’s Premier League Clash with Brentford

Erling Haaland may miss Manchester City’s upcoming Premier League clash with Brentford, as Pep Guardiola is reportedly considering granting him compassionate leave.

The Haaland family is mourning the loss of Ivar Eggja, a close family friend and confidant, who passed away at the age of 59. Eggja played a significant role in Haaland’s career and personal life, offering guidance and support throughout the striker’s journey to stardom. Haaland, who referred to Eggja as ‘uncle,’ is deeply affected by the loss.

Haaland has been in sensational form this season, netting seven goals in just three Premier League matches, including back-to-back hat-tricks against Ipswich Town and West Ham United. Whether he decides to take time away from football to grieve remains to be seen.
