Manchester
City goalkeeper Ederson admitted in an interview for his club's press that he
is "happy" to see Kevin De Bruyne back in action.
Kevin
De Bruyne returned to action in Manchester City's 3-2
Premier League win over Newcastle in mid-January. Since then, the Belgian has
been a boost for the Sky Blues.
The
32-year-old has made an impact in the midfield and both his
teammates and his coach are delighted to have him back on the
pitch. So much so that first-choice goalkeeper Ederson compared
the Belgian's performances to a game of chess.
"It’s
just like chess. You have to protect the king [De Bruyne]! Now
we have our king back, one of the best assisters in Premier
League history, third in the list now," he told his current
club's press.
"We’re
so happy to have him back and playing good football, especially
after such a long time out. He’s a player that our team missed a lot because
he has such ability. He finds passes that very few players can find.
"He
gets assists, scores goals, plays good football, he keeps the ball,
so I’m very happy that he’s back and that he has returned to
his high level. I hope that he can help us a lot for the rest of
the season, not only him, but the whole group," he concluded.
