The last thing Manchester City needs is their leading marksman missing the business end of the season through injury.
City trail league leaders Arsenal by a single point in the Premier League, and they are also level on points with another fierce rival, Liverpool.
It is safe to conclude that Pep Guardiola will find it extremely difficult to replicate his treble success from next season, and the current international break could not have come at a worse time for the Spaniard.
During a recent press conference, the Manchester City boss admitted he was powerless to control what his players do while they are representing their countries.

This statement rang true on Tuesday, March 19 after a clip of Erling Haaland limping surfaced on social media.
According to TV2, quoted on Standard, Norway’s team doctor Ola Sand played down the injury concerns insisting there was “no problem” with the 23-year-old striker.
Norway have two upcoming friendly matches before the international break comes to a close.
Stale Solbakken come up against Czechia on Friday, and this will be followed by another friendly against Slovakia on Tuesday.
This means Solbakken will most likely appear before media on Thursday, March 21 to address the Haaland injury situation.
At the moment, there is no telling whether Haaland will be fit enough to face the Gunners.
The only glimmer of hope is the fact that the match is 11 days away, which is ample time for the striker to shrug off a minor injury, if it is there.
