Ederson to dye hair blue if Man City win Champions League
Ederson has vowed to dye his hair blue if Manchester City win the Champions League this weekend.
Ederson will dye his hair blue once more if Manchester City win the Champions League.
The Brazilian goalkeeper marked the club's Premier League title triumph with the new look and will celebrate in the same style if City conquer Europe to impress his daughter.
Ederson explained: "My daughter asked me to dye my hair blue for that. It was a kid’s spray that comes out with water. Of course, if we are champions again, I’ll dye my hair blue again, but only with the kid’s spray that comes out with water – nothing permanent."
The keeper has been praised for his composure as City look to pass the ball out from defence and admits that he does not get nervous even though any mistake could prove costly.
He said: "I think any City keeper needs to be calm, to play with personality.
"There are a lot of teams that try to pressure us, so you need to be calm, get the ball under control and have the vision to find the right pass. I remember a game against Tottenham where I misplaced a pass and it led to a goal.
"I said to my teammates after, ‘You can still pass to me’, because errors are part of the process. Errors help us to grow, we learn a lot from mistakes. I mainly learn from errors. You can learn a lot more from making a mistake than you can from doing things right, or from winning."
City will look to win the Champions League for the first time against Inter on Saturday (10.06.23) and Ederson is ready if penalties are required to decide the game.
He said: "We will work on every requirement: whether that is finishing, crosses, penalties. In this game, we need to be prepared for any circumstance over 90 minutes, and 120 or penalties if necessary. We need to be ready for any situation so that nothing surprises us."
