​Everton keeper Olsen hoping to replace Pickford for Man City

Everton goalkeeper Robin Olsen hopes to be fit for their FA Cup clash with Manchester City at the weekend.

The Toffees have a chance to get into the semi finals, but only if they can overcome the current Premier League leaders.

Given the injury to Jordan Pickford, manager Carlo Ancelotti will hope he can select Olsen for the game.

According to the Liverpool Echo, Olsen is working hard to be fully fit for the match.

If he is not ready, then youngster Joao Virginia will get another chance, after coming to replace Pickford against Burnley at the weekend.
