Manchester City goalkeeper Ederson says that if the Champions League final against Chelsea goes down to penalties, he will be taking one for Pep Guardiola's side.
The all-English final is set to take place in Porto on Saturday night, with Man City in the final for the first time in their history, while Chelsea will be looking to pick up their second title after the infamous win against Bayern Munich back in 2012.
The 27-year-old is famed for his ability with his feet since joining City, forming a key part of Guardiola's style with his technique and passing out from the back to help build attacks.
Chelsea came out on top in both of the last two meetings between the sides, claiming a victory in the FA Cup semi-final last month before beating City on their own turf earlier this month thanks to a late goal from Marcos Alonso.
With margins between the two teams likely to be tight once more in a cup final, penalty shootouts could come into play.
Both Champions League finals Chelsea have taken part in have gone to penalties - with the win against Bayern Munich and a loss against Manchester United in 2008.
But should it come down to that again this year, Tuchel's side will have something new to compete with.
"I am [on the list to take a penalty]," Ederson told TNT Sports. "I don't need to train that much, but the fifth one, I'm taking it.
"The last one, the decisive, I’ll ask for it…"
Ederson has previously stated that he is the best penalty taker at Manchester City, but is not allowed to take them.
"I don’t train much free-kicks. I trained penalties and when I played for Riberao I took some free-kicks but that is in the past now. I am the best penalty taker but I am not chosen to take them."
