(Reuters) -Brazil goalkeeper Ederson said he had already attempted to leave Manchester City the season before last, with unhappiness at the Premier League club weighing on him after struggling with injuries.

At a press conference ahead of Saturday's international friendly against Senegal, the 32-year-old spoke about his close-season transfer to Fenerbahce, having joined the Turkish club in a deal worth around 12 million pounds ($16.11 million) after eight trophy-laden years in Manchester.
