Ederson says Brazil teammate Philippe Coutinho turns Bayern Munich into Champions League contenders.

Coutinho joined Bayern on loan from Barcelona this summer.

"Bayern is always a great team. Now with Coutinho they definitely belong among the title favourites for the Champions League," Manchester City goalkeeper Ederson told Bildwhile on international duty this week.

"Coutinho is a brilliant player. Unfortunately, it did not go as well for him in Barcelona as it was in Liverpool.

"At Bayern he can now show his football again and be really happy again."
