Guardiola reveals why Ederson stayed at Man City despite Ronaldo's club interest
Manchester City goalkeeper Ederson attracted attention from Saudi clubs this summer, but ultimately, the Brazilian remained with Pep Guardiola’s squad. The manager has now shed light on why Ederson’s departure didn’t materialize.
Details: Guardiola confirmed that the club received an inquiry for Ederson but noted that the goalkeeper has a set value, and without a matching offer, Ederson would continue with Manchester City.
Quote: “We didn’t want Ederson to leave this summer. There was no serious offer... Well, there was an offer, but a keeper for a team that’s won four consecutive Premier League titles has a certain price. Without meeting that, he cannot leave! And that’s basically what happened,” Guardiola told the press.
Reminder: During the summer transfer window, reports linked Ederson to Cristiano Ronaldo’s club, Al-Nassr.
