Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola has expressed concerns over goalkeeper Ederson’s potential absence during the most crucial stage of the season following an injury sustained in the 2-0 victory against Nottingham Forest.
Ederson suffered a blow to the shoulder after a collision with Forest’s Willy-Arnaud Boly early in the match. Despite the injury, the Brazilian continued to play until half-time, when Guardiola opted to replace him with Stefan Ortega.
Following the match, Ederson was observed leaving with his arm in a sling, indicating the severity of the injury.
“It doesn’t look good. We’ll see tomorrow with the doctor,” Guardiola commented when asked about Ederson’s injury, expressing uncertainty about the goalkeeper’s availability for upcoming fixtures.
City’s next game is scheduled against Wolves on Saturday, and Guardiola’s apprehension underscores the potential impact of Ederson’s absence during a critical juncture of the season.
