Manchester Citydon’t want to give up in the race for the Premier League. After a huge victory over Aston Villa, Pep Guardiola and his players are just three points behind Arsenal. The Citizens are very much alive in the three major competitions: Champions League, Premier League and the FA Cup.
However, these days have been very difficult for Manchester City after the scandal regarding the financial fair play. The Premier League made strong accusations stating the club had breached the rules at least a hundred times during a nine-year period (2009-2018).
Now, another unfortunate event might derail Manchester City’s hopes. Erling Haaland has scored 25 goals in the Premier League (31 overall), but he might be out in the most important strectch of the season.
