Norwegian Erling Haaland, Manchester City striker, posted a photo on social media this Thursday showing him on a scale, with the message "all good," in response to his manager Pep Guardiola's warning about his players gaining weight during the holiday season. Christmas.

“On the 25th (of December) I'll be there monitoring how many kilos they gain. They arrive 'chubby'. They can eat at Christmas, but I want to keep an eye on them; I have to make the squad list for the 27th against Nottingham Forest,” the Spanish coach said at the beginning of this week.

“Imagine if a player who's currently in perfect shape arrives three kilos heavier; he'll stay in Manchester and won't travel to Nottingham, that's for sure,” the Spanish manager added.

Guardiola's team will play their eighteenth Premier League match at Forest's home ground, and they'll do so from second place in the table with 37 points, two behind Arsenal and on a good run of results.
