Man City Goalkeeper Ederson To Miss Title Decider And FA Cup Final Due To Fractured Eye Socket
A fractured eye socket will see Manchester City goalkeeper Ederson miss the final two games of the season.
Ederson got injured following a collision with Cristian Romero in Manchester City's 2-0 win at Tottenham Hotspurs on Tuesday.
The Brazilian goalkeeper was replaced by Stefan Ortega after 69 minutes.
Manchester City will play West Ham United in their final Premier League game on Sunday, knowing a win will guarantee them a fourth straight top flight title while Manchester United await in the FA Cup final next weekend.
“The Brazilian goalkeeper suffered the injury during our 2-0 win at Tottenham Hotspur on Tuesday evening,” City said on their official website.
“He has since undergone scans of the affected area that have revealed a small fracture to the right eye socket.
“The injury will prevent Ederson from playing any further part in the remaining games of the 2023/24 season. Everyone at the Club wishes Ederson a speedy recovery.”
