Manchester City goalkeeper Zack Steffen is set to make his Premier League debut at Chelsea on Sunday following the Covid-19 outbreak at the Etihad.

City have confirmed five players will miss the game after testing positive. Though Kyle Walker and Gabriel Jesus are the only names confirmed, Brazilian goalkeeper Ederson has posted on social media that he has been self-isolating.

Steffen, 25, was signed from Columbus Crew in 2019 and spent last season on loan with Fortuna Dusseldorf, where his appearances were restricted by a knee injury.
