Another suitor emerges for Ederson ahead of the transfer window closing | OneFootball

The goalkeeping situation at Manchester City is the biggest question mark hanging over the club ahead of the transfer window closing. If Ederson leaves the club, then it is expected that City will quickly complete a deal to sign PSG goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma. Mark Brus has reported for CaughtOffside that Manchester City and PSG have largely agreed on a deal that will see Donnarumma sign for City.

But that move depends on what happens with Ederson. It was thought that Galatasaray were the favourites to sign Manchester City’s number-one goalkeeper. But now a new suitor in Fenerbahce has seemingly emerged to sign the Brazilian international. It remains to be seen which Turkish club can meet Manchester City’s demands to sell arguably the greatest goalkeeper in the club’s history.

Fenerbahce have made their move to sign Ederson.

Esteemed Kompany sources have discovered that Fenerbahce have submitted a €12 million offer to Manchester City to sign Ederson. Furthermore, it has also been revealed that Fenerbahce’s offer falls below Manchester City’s €15-17 million asking price to sell their number-one goalkeeper.

Ederson has already agreed on personal terms with Galatasaray. The issue so far is that Galatasaray has yet to agree on a transfer fee with Manchester City. Esteemed Kompany sources expect Galatasaray to submit a fresh offer for Ederson imminently. Whether or not Galatasaray’s new offer will satisfy Manchester City’s demands remains to be seen. If it doesn’t, it may open the door for Fenerbahce to move for the Brazilian international.

The goalkeeping situation at Manchester City may be heading to a resolution.

It now looks like the goalkeeping situation at Manchester City may finally have a resolution. Fenerbahce and Galatasaray are pushing to sign Ederson. It is now up to either club to club to satisfy Manchester City’s demands. If they can, it will likely unlock City’s move for Gianluigi Donnarumma. Ederson seemingly has a choice to make between Fenerbahce or Galatasaray. Both clubs look to be pushing hard to sign the Brazilian goalkeeper. The transfer battle between the two rivals may come down to where Ederson decides he wants to play his football next season.

It does appear that the goalkeeping situation at Manchester City may finally have a resolution. If Fenerbahce or Galatasaray can submit a suitable offer to Manchester City they are likely to sign Ederson. It had seemed that Galatasaray was Ederson’s likely destination. But Fenerbahce’s move may have changed the equation. What happens next will likely shape what Manchester City do in the transfer market ahead of the transfer window closing.
