Stefan Ortega
33-Year-Old
Nottingham Forest
Premier
OUT
Injury Calf
Est. Return 3/12/2026
Out a few more days
Ortega (calf) is set to miss a few more days, according to manager Vitor Pereira, per Sarah Clapson of the Nottingham Post. "[Stefan] got an injury. I think he will be out for a few more days."
ANALYSIS
Ortega will need to sit out a game or two more as he recovers from injury, with a calf issue too much to play through. This leaves Matz Sels to continue as a starter in net, coming back quicker than wanted of an injury of his own. The big question is who will see the start once both are fit, with both goalies showing promise on their best days.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Nottingham Forest could make move
Nottingham Forest could make a move to sign Ortega, according to Sky Sports Germany.
ANALYSIS
Ortega's contract will expire at the end of the current 2025/26 season, so Nottingham Forest are open to signing him as a free agent in the summer, unless he decides to sign a new deal at City at the very last minute. Ortega would have to compete with Matz Sels and John between the posts at Nottingham, but he'd likely move there to operate as the No. 3 goalkeeper, the same role he has at Manchester City right now.
