The Norwegian suffered a groin injury during City’s 6-0 win over Burnley in the FA Cup on March 18, which left him sidelined for more than two weeks. He was forced to withdraw from the Norway squad for the 2024 European Champions qualifiers against Spain and Georgia, and also had to sit out City's Premier League encounter against Liverpool. Pep Guardiola's side romped to a 4-1 victory over the Reds in Haaland's absence, but he is now set to re-join the squad.

City confirmed the striker's return to training in a short video on social media with the caption: "@ErlingHaaland is back! 👀"

Haaland has been in terrific form since he joined the reigning Premier League champions from Borussia Dortmund last summer, scoring 42 goals in 37 matches across all competitions. He will now seek to help City close out an unprecedented treble, with the league title still up for grabs alongside FA Cup and Champions League honours.

Guardiola could let Haaland play straight back against Southampton at St Mary’s on Saturday, where a win would see City cut the gap to Premier League leaders Arsenal to just five points. The 22-year-old will also be in line to feature when City welcome Bayern Munich to the Etihad Stadium for the first leg of their Champions League quarter-final tie on April 11.
