Norway coach Stale Solbakken says Manchester City striker Erling Haaland's injury 'isn't career threatening'.

Haaland is out of today's clash with Scotland with an ankle and a doubt for Saturday's meeting with Liverpool.

"It's his movement in the foot that is his problem but it's not a serious injury," Solbakken told reporters on Saturday evening.

"Had [the game vs Scotland] been a final, I don't know.

"Maybe Erling has talked to [City] but we haven't. Our doctor has made his own judgement on it and all parties agree it's probably a little bit too early, but it's not a career-threatening injury."
