If the Brazilian goalkeeper gives the green light to what has been proposed, the Saudi club must prepare an official offer to send to Manchester City. Ederson has a contract with the current English champions until June 2026, that is, two more seasons.
Ederson suffered a facial injury in the final stretch of the English Championship and, therefore, is not with the Brazilian national team group in the United States, where the Copa América is taking place. Rafael, São Paulo’s goalkeeper, was called up by Dorival Junior to fill the vacancy.
An idol at Manchester City, the goalkeeper has defended the English team’s goal since the start of the 2017/2018 season. Since then, he has won the Premier League (6), the Champions League (1) and the Club World Cup (1).
