Benfica keeper Ederson: I like Man City and England

Benfica goalkeeper Ederson has welcomed interest from Manchester City.

Ederson has been linked with City as a replacement for Joe Hart.

While happy at Benfica, Ederson admits he's flattered by interest from City and Inter Milan.

"I will not leave Benfica. I do not want to and do not intend to. Although it's not always the decision which is 100 percent of the player, unfortunately," he posted to fans on Facebook.

Asked about City and Bayern Munich, he added: "They're two giants, two teams that will fight for the Champions League next season. But I prefer England and City."
