EDERSON denied being a fan of Tommy Robinson — after posing for a photo with the far-right thug.
Robinson’s bodyguard Daniel Thomas posted a snap of former BNP member and EDL founder Robinson with Manchester City star Ederson on Tuesday afternoon.
Thomas wrote: “Tommy Robinson meeting city’s golden boy @edersonmoraes93 last night, has his full support while in Manchester.”
However, the Man City goalkeeper hit back, accusing Thomas of lying.
The Brazilian said he wouldn’t have posed with Robinson if he knew who he was.
Ederson tweeted: “People have made me aware of who this guy is.
“I definitely do not support this guy or his ideas.
“He just stopped me for a picture.
“I had no idea who he was (do not be a liar).”
Ederson joined Man City from Benfica for £35million in 2017 and went on to win the title a year later.
He has already clocked up 87 appearances under Pep Guardiola.
And Ederson will be hoping to make it two titles on the bounce as league leaders City lead Liverpool by a point with two games remaining.
