The Brazil star is shown cuddling partner Lais’s baby bump and has revealed the child’s name – Henrique – accompanying the image: “Wednesday, let’s wait for you, my son #Henrique.”
Ederson and Lais have been married for four years and have one daughter, Yasmin, who is one year old.
The goalkeeper, who has been brilliant this season after signing a new seven-year contract in May, was left out of Brazil’s squad for the international break due to the impending delivery of his second child.
However, he is about to become a father for the second time, just days after teammate Leroy Sane announced the birth of his daughter.
He is still Tite’s second option for the national team, behind Liverpool goalkeeper Alisson, but he is putting pressure on the Anfield ace.
Brazil defeated the United States on Saturday and will face El Salvador today before returning to domestic play.
In fact, even Ederson’s day job between the sticks has felt like a vacation.
He is the only goalkeeper in the league with an assist, thanks to Sergio Aguero’s goalkick in the 6-1 thrashing of Huddersfield.
The defending Premier League champions are presently fourth in the table after losing to Wolves.
However, victories over Arsenal, the Terriers, and Newcastle have them trailing Watford, Liverpool, and Chelsea, the three teams at the top of the table.
Pep Guardiola’s team will play Fulham on Saturday.
They will also be encouraged by SunSport’s report that Ilkay Gundogan has rebuffed Barcelona’s interest in order to begin contract discussions with City.
