Manchester City are expected to make a move for Benfica goalkeeper Ederson Moraes at the end of the season.

City were after the 23-year-old Brazilian gloveman in the summer but instead opted for Claudio Bravo who joined from Barcelona.

The Sun is reporting that Pep Guardiola is retaining a strong interest in Moraes and will pursue him in the next summer transfer window.

It is understood that City are prepared to pay £20million for Moraes who would act as back-up to Chile international Bravo.

The potential move for Moraes suggests that Joe Hart, currently on loan at Torino, will not be returning to the Etihad Stadium at the end of the campaign.
