Why did Ederson and Phil Foden miss Manchester City's Premier League clash with Wolves?
Pep Guardiola explained the reasons behind omitting Ederson and Phil Foden from Manchester City 's matchday squad f or their Premier League opener against Wolves on Saturday afternoon. During the week Guardiola had confirmed that Ederson is the No.1 goalkeeper at the club despite City activating a buy-back clause to bring James Trafford back to the club following an impressive spell with Burnley. Trafford was handed the starting berth between the posts with his Brazilian counterpart left behind in Manchester amid ongoing transfer speculation. Ederson has been linked with a move away from the club this summer, with Galatasaray supposedly in talks to sign him in a £10m move, but Guardiola explained those rumours had no bearing in his decision to leave out the 31-year-old who sits out the match due to illness, specifically gastroenteritis. Speaking to Sky Sports before kick off Guardiola explained: 'He has stomach problems, yesterday wasn't so good and he had vomiting. The Doctor decided he would stay in Manchester.' As for Foden, there were plenty of worries about the attacker's fitness throughout the week and he was in a race to be fit for today's match having been left out during City's pre-season game against Palermo last weekend. Unlike Ederson, Foden did travel with the team to Molineux but wasn't ready to feature for Guardiola's men and watched the match from the stands while he nurses an ankle injury. Another player to sit out the match was influential midfielder Rodri who is also trying to get back to match fitness like Foden. Of him, Guardiola added: 'Sure he will be involved, very soon.' Elsewhere, former Wolves defender Rayan Ait-Nouri was handed his Premier League debut for the club and became the fourth City player to make his top-flight club debut against a side he previously played for in the competition.

Ryan Reynolds reveals awkward first meeting with Wrexham's record signing before home loss to West Brom
Ryan Reynolds has admitted he was taken aback when he came face-to-face with Wrexham 's record signing Nathan Broadhead. Earlier this week, Broadhead penned a four-year deal to return to the club where he began his career as an academy player, joining from Ipswich. Wrexham are understood to have paid a club-record fee, with an initial £7.5million and a further £2.5m in add-ons. And when the Hollywood star finally met the forward in person, he confessed he didn't even recognise him at first. 'Obviously those things are in the works a little longer than the public view might have,' Reynolds told ITV ahead of Wrexham's clash with West Brom. 'I had an incredibly awkward moment with him in the dressing room because in person, he just looks so young and I've seen him play tons, I've watched him. The forward came off the bench as Wrexham suffered a 3-2 defeat by West Brom 'I didn't commit. I was like "hey, hi!" I was like "that can't be Nathan Broadhead. It can't be, he's too young". But he's 27 and he's a machine. 'So I had that, but now it's sunk in. I managed to get my entire leg in my mouth. Now it's sunk in.' Broadhead started on the bench against West Brom was forced into action earlier than expected, replacing the injured Josh Windass during the first half against West Brom. The Baggies inflicted a second defeat of the season on Wrexham, claiming a 3-2 win at the Racecourse Ground. The arrival of Broadhead came after Wrexham had already added Premier League experience in Conor Coady, Kieffer Moore, Danny Ward, and Lewis O'Brien, who was their previous record signing. The Red Dragons will seek to pick up their first Championship win of the season when they host Sheffield Wednesday next weekend.
