Pep Guardiola says Ederson's injury 'doesn't look good' as Manchester City prepare for their final four games of the Premier League season.
City worked hard to beat a stubborn Nottingham Forest side, who missed three presentable chances after Josko Gvardiol's goal, but the introduction of Erling Haaland calmed City nerves and sealed an important win in the title race. However, Ederson went off at half-time after receiving treatment earlier in the game.
And Guardiola gave a negative assessment on his goalkeeper's condition. Guardiola said after the game: "It doesn't look good. We see tomorrow with the doctor." Ederson was later seen leaving the stadium with his arm in a sling - this was the third game this season he has gone off injured as a substitute.

City also missed Phil Foden and Ruben Dias at Forest, who were both ill. However Guardiola confirmed Jeremy Doku's half-time substitution was for tactical reasons as he wanted more touches on the ball in the middle from Mateo Kovacic and Bernardo Silva.
