Man City keeper Ederson: No rivalry with Liverpool's Brazilians

Manchester City goalkeeper Ederson believes Brazil can be proud of their stars in the Premier League.

Both Ederson and Alisson are first choice keepers for their clubs but it's the Liverpool shot-stopper who is the regular starter for Brazil.

"I think it's a good sign for all the goalkeepers in Brazil and for the country," he told the Manchester Evening News.

"You look at Europe and you find two great goalkeepers playing at high level in two of the best clubs. I have a good relationship, not only with Alisson, but also with [Roberto] Firmino and Fabinho.

"When we have a day off in the same day, we sometimes gather, we have a barbecue... It's difficult with our routine and the amount of games to have the same day off, but we have done it few times before. Our rivalry is only on the pitch."
