Manchester City beat RB Leipzig 3-2 as Haaland seals win
City and Chelsea have sent scouts to watch Club Brugge striker Nicolo Tresoldi, who has 14 goals in 16 games. An 'international auction' could push his fee beyond €50m.
City named four changes for the must-win trip to Leipzig, with Marc Guehi, Nico O'Reilly, Rayan Cherki and Phil Foden starting. Haaland leads the line as Maresca chase a top-eight boost.
Haaland urged City to be more ruthless after his late winner sealed a 3-2 victory at Leipzig. He said they must push for more goals and improve together.
City head to Forest with Semenyo their only confirmed absentee. Forest have three concerns, with Dominguez a doubt, as Maresca's side look to build on the Leipzig win.
Maresca called City’s 3-2 win at Leipzig a tough Champions League test and highlighted Brajan Gruda and Antonio Nusa as the main threats after his side struggled in transitions.
Haaland struck late as City beat RB Leipzig 3-2 after being pegged back twice. Fernandez scored, Lukeba netted an own goal, and City moved into the top seven.

City’s 3-2 win over Leipzig saw Anderson shine with Haaland’s winner, while Donnarumma looked shaky. Antonio Nusa impressed, but City still took three points despite a ragged display.
City could face fresh scrutiny beyond 2018 after a report said executives want further investigation into suspected financial breaches, despite the club appealing the guilty verdict.
Ait-Nouri wants to leave City in January after limited minutes under Maresca. Manchester United, Juventus and Everton are linked, with his camp saying his 'talent is being wasted'.
Predicted City XI at Forest has Dias and Gvardiol returning, Anderson facing his former club, and Haaland leading the line after his late winner at RB Leipzig.
Haaland’s late winner earned City a 3-2 win at Leipzig after two equalisers. Anderson starred with the decisive assist as Maresca’s side climbed into the top eight.
Maresca backed Gianluigi Donnarumma after his Leipzig error, insisting it is not a concern. City won 3-2 through Haaland, but the manager urged them to cut out 'silly goals'.
City are among clubs monitoring Villarreal prospect Moussa Koné. The 17-year-old midfielder has a contract to 2029 and a reported €50m release clause.
