Manchester City shelled out a record fee to bring Ederson to English shores

Brazil has been in hunt of a great goalkeeper for a couple of years now, and with the World Cup on the doors, the number one spot is pretty much up for grabs at the moment. By joining English powerhouse Manchester City, Ederson automatically imposes himself as one of the most probable options to win the race to Russia.

Pep Guardiola is a big fan of the Brazilian, mainly for his ability to retain his composure under pressure, in order to play the right pass and maintain possession, instead of brainlessly clearing the ball wide at every occasion. Guardiola's system always relies on building from the back, and for that, a ball-playing goalie is fundamental to add.

Ederson is, however, far more than just someone who can pass the ball well. When it comes to quick reflexes and spectacular saves, the Brazilian is up there, as he has demonstrated during his spell with Portugal's champions Benfica, where he was voted as the league's best at his position.

All eyes will be set on the 23-year old. Will he be City's next Claudio Bravo, or will he prove to be the missing puzzle in Pep's plans?
