Norway coach Solbakken warns media against asking Haaland about Man City

Norway coach Stale Solbakken has warned local reporters against asking questions to Erling Haaland about his move to Manchester City.

The mixed zone is open for the local media ahead of Norway's Nations League games this coming week.

"I do not think he goes naked through there, but we will see. Morten takes care of it," joked Solbakken, referring to the national team's media manager Morten Morisbak Skjønsberg.

"We'll see," Skjønsberg followed up.

Before the upcoming Nations League matches in Norway, the European Football Association (UEFA) has reintroduced the interview zone (mixed zone) after the matches.

"I do not think you should expect him to talk about Manchester City or any other clubs on a Norwegian national team forum," Solbakken continued about Haaland.

"It would be the same as if I were to sit here and talk about something completely different than what I am here for."
