Manchester City have secured deals to see a number of players leave the club during the current summer transfer window.
For example, the Blues have sold the likes of Sergio Gomez, Liam Delap and Taylor Harwood-Bellis on permanent deals to other clubs.
As well as that, numerous other members of Pep Guardiola’s squad have been linked with moves away from the Etihad Stadium.
One, for example, is Ederson, who Saudi Arabian club Al Nassr made an offer for but eventually ended up walking away from due to City’s high valuation according to Fabrizio Romano in a post on his X account.
Now though, a journalist has made a claim about another side that may look to make a move for the goalkeeper.
Journalist claims another club could look to sign Ederson this summer
Appearing on the talkSPORT breakfast show to discuss a range of transfer-related topics, journalist Ben Jacobs had this to say on the current situation surrounding Ederson.
He said: “With Ederson, what’s interesting is that Al Nassr have now signed a goalkeeper, Bento, so that means they won’t be bidding for Ederson.
“Al-Ittihad, though, have cooled at the moment on Chelsea’s Kepa, so they could turn their attention to Ederson, but Manchester City want £30m or more.”
Only a significant offer should convince City to sell Ederson
With City rejecting Al Nassr’s offer of €30m (£25m) for the Brazilian, who they would apparently want €60m (£50m) to consider selling, it’s clear that any club looking to land a deal for the 30-year-old will not be able to get him on the cheap.
As City’s first-choice goalkeeper, who was described by Danny Murphy as a unique weapon for the Blues, it’s understandable why they value him so highly.
In our view, regardless of what sort of offer may or may not come in for the Brazil international, City should have no intention of letting such a key member of their team leave.
