Norway coach Solbakken ponders how best to manage Man City striker Haaland

Norway coach Stale Solbakken is unsure how he will use Manchester City striker Erling Haaland this week.

Norway have a warm-up game against Faroe Islands before a must-win Euro2024 qualifier against Scotland.

Solbakken said: "It will be a bit like last time, when we played a friendly match against Jordan and a qualifying match against Georgia.

"We must not waste the game against the Faroe Islands, and those who get the chance against them must feel that they are joining a team that is well-coordinated.

"Some will play both games, and there will be someone in the squad who doesn't get a minute of playing time.

"But he (Haaland) looks more and more fit."
