Goalkeeper Benfica Ederson in the near future can complete his transition to Manchester City.

Manchester City is close to reaching an agreement with Benfica on the transfer of goalkeeper Ederson.

For the transition of the 23-year-old Brazilian Citizens will pay 40 million euros, making him one of the most expensive goalkeepers in history.

In this case, Benfica owns only 50% of the rights to the player.

Part of the transfer amount will be divided between Rio Ave, former Ederson club in Brazil - Ribeiroo, as well as the football agency Gestifute.

It is expected that the agreement on the transition Ederson will be achieved in the near future and with the opening of the transfer window the Brazilian will immediately become part of the City.

In the transfer of Ederson is personally interested in Josep Guardiola, who was dissatisfied with Joe Hart, while Willie Caballero left the team, and Claudio Bravo did not live up to expectations.
