Erling Haaland could return for Manchester City's weekend clash with Fulham after Pep Guardiola said the striker's foot injury is 'much better'.
Guardiola wanted to see how the Norwegian, who has scored 22 goals already this season, performs in training on Friday before committing him to Saturday's game at the Etihad Stadium.
Haaland has missed City's last two games after being substituted at half-time during the goalless draw with Borussia Dortmund in the Champions League on October 25.
The 22-year-old had been struggling with a bout of flu and also the foot problem, forcing him out of City's 1-0 win at Leicester City and 3-1 victory over Sevilla.
