Haaland rules himself out of Norway's upcoming games
Erling Haaland has made it clear that he won't be able to play for Norway this month.
Borussia Dortmund forward Erling Haaland has confirmed that he will not be able to play for Norway during the international break.
The 21-year-old star striker, who missed Dortmund's last three games with a muscle injury, took to Twitter to rule himself out of his country's upcoming games against Turkey and Montenegro.
"Hi folks. It sucks that I won't be ready for the international matches. I was looking forward to it. Anyway, good luck to Norway," Haaland stated.
Borussia Dortmund head of first team football Sebastian Kehl told Kicker on Sunday that he expects Haaland to come back into the squad for the game against Mainz on 16 October.
Hei folkens, kjipt å ikkje bli klar til landskampane. Hadde gleda meg. Uansett, lykke til Norge 💪🏻
