Erling Haaland is facing up to a “few weeks” out with a hip injury, Borussia Dortmund boss Marco Rose has revealed, but the prolific striker is already vowing to return “stronger”.
The talented 21-year-old has only recently returned to action after missing three games with a muscular complaint.
He now finds himself back on the sidelines, with Dortmund having to make do without their most potent attacking weapon.
Rose has told reporters when asked to deliver a fitness update ahead of a Bundesliga clash with Arminia Bielefeld on Saturday: “Thomas Meunier will not be able to play, Nico Schulz has a torn muscle fibre and Erling Haaland will not play and will be absent for a few weeks with a hip flexor injury.”
Time to focus on my recovery. I’ll be back stronger! pic.twitter.com/G5Ez5bohTv
