Manchester City goalkeeper Ederson could leave the club this summer with rumours of a massive offer from Saudi Arabia emerging. The 30-year-old has been one of the best goalkeepers in the Premier League since his arrival from Benfica in 2017.
After making 332 appearances for the Sky Blues and winning six Premier League titles, the Champions League, two FA Cups, four League Cups, FIFA Club World Cup and UEFA Super Cup, he could be on the move if he agrees a contract with the Saudi Pro League.

The Brazilian recently became the goalkeeper with the most Premier League titles after his sixth in seven years as a Manchester City player. However, he suffered a right eye socket fracture in the penultimate game of the season against Tottenham.
As a result, he will not be playing the FA Cup final against Manchester City and could have played his last game in a City shirt if the move goes through.
City’s number two, Stefan Ortega, has been offered a new contract by the club but he wants playing time assurances before signing the contract. If Ederson indeed leaves for Saudi Arabia, then Ortega could emerge as the new number one at the club.
The situation is expected to develop further in the coming weeks, with the 30-year-old open to a new challenge.
