Man City legend admits he 'NEEDED' to leave the club in the summer after trying to quit a year before he was eventually allowed to depart

Former Manchester City goalkeeper Ederson has admitted he realised he needed to get out of the club in the summer amid his move to Fenerbahce.

The Brazilian spent eight years in Manchester with Pep Guardiola's side, winning six Premier League titles and the Champions League during an illustrious period for the club.

In the summer, though, his stay came to an end, and he moved to Turkey for £12million, with Gianluigi Donnarumma replacing him in between the sticks at the Etihad.

It was a move that couldn't come soon enough for Ederson, who has become the undisputed No 1 in Turkey and is now back in the fold with Brazil.
