Haaland 'no different' following Man City verdict
52 minutes ago
Erling Haaland has been unaffected by the "sham contract" verdict against Manchester City, according to the Norway camp he's been with since the news broke.
Haaland will play for the first time since the Premier League's confirmation of City's financial rule breaches when Norway take on Wales in Cardiff on Thursday (19:45 BST).
As expected, Haaland was not put in front of the cameras as the World Cup quarter-finalists arrived in Wales amid headlines over his club and what next for the former champions, who continue to deny any wrongdoing.
Haaland signed for City in 2022, four years after the last of the nine seasons City were found to have broken financial rules, and is seen as their biggest star.
He trained as normal at Cardiff City Stadium on Wednesday evening, with Brentford defender Kristoffer Ajer saying the 26-year-old had been "no different" since the news broke.

Manager Stale Solbakken attempted to deflect questions, tersely saying Haaland was "very good" and "scoring goals" before admitting he did miss one chance against Portugal he would normally have finished.
