Asked if the Norwegian superstar will be keeping his options open ahead of transfer windows in 2027, City cult hero Dickov - who was speaking in association with [247Bet](https://www.247bet.com/en-gb/sports) - told ****GOAL****: “Nobody knows. I was speaking to somebody when I was in at the club, are the players going to leave, and nobody knows.
“It's really difficult to comment until you know what the sanctions are, if they are found guilty and the appeal has not worked. I know that all the club is doing is, from all staff, not just the players, is reaffirming their stance on the matter.
“And I think, at the minute, what we're going to find, which eventually will be good to get back to football, is a really, really interesting game on Sunday. People are talking about how the players react, do they use it as a siege mentality, the world against us?
“But then, at the same time, they're experienced enough, and they're professional enough. There's a lot of players in that squad that have played in big games, in big moments, top atmospheres. So it's going to be interesting what happens on Sunday.”
