Manchester City goalkeeper Ederson has confirmed that he will be staying at the club this summer, despite receiving offers to leave. He discussed his decision with his family, teammates, and coach Pep Guardiola, ultimately deciding to remain at the Etihad. Fans are pleased with this decision and are calling for the club to offer him a contract extension.
There were attempts from Saudi Arabian clubs Al-Ittihad and Al-Nassr to buy Ederson, but they were not willing to meet City’s asking price of £40-50 million. In the end, Al-Ittihad signed Predrag Rajkovic and Al-Nassr acquired Ederson’s international teammate Bento. With Ederson expressing his intention to stay in England for many years, it is crucial for City to secure him with a new contract, as his current deal expires in 2025/26.
Fans are delighted that Ederson has chosen to stay at Manchester City and are urging the club to tie down the goalkeeper with a contract extension. The Brazilian shot-stopper’s decision to remain at the club comes after speculation about his potential departure to Saudi Arabia. City will be looking to keep their key players as they aim to defend their Premier League title and compete for more trophies in the coming seasons.
