Manchester City goalkeeper to miss title decider, FA Cup final

Manchester City goalkeeper Ederson will miss their Premier League title decider and the FA Cup final due to a fractured eye socket.

The 30-year-old Brazilian was unhappy about being substituted after 69 minutes in Tuesday’s 2-0 league win at Tottenham following a collision with Spurs’ Cristian Romero.

League leaders City will host West Ham on Sunday, needing a win—or matching Arsenal’s result against Everton—to secure their fourth consecutive title.

City will face Manchester United in the FA Cup final at Wembley on May 25.

Stefan Ortega, who made several key saves after replacing Ederson against Spurs, is expected to step in for the final two games.

The German goalkeeper has played in every round of the FA Cup and Carabao Cup over the past two seasons and was likely to feature at Wembley even if Ederson were available.
