Manchester City expects Saudi Arabia to make another offer for Ederson

According to reports, Manchester City is preparing to receive more offers for Ederson from Saudi Arabia.

James Ducker of The Telegraph reports that Manchester City has already rejected a £25 million offer from Al-Nassr for Ederson, which is roughly half of their valuation of the Brazilian. However, Al-Ittihad is also interested in the goalkeeper and may test City's resolve, even though City might need a higher offer than that from Al-Nassr to consider selling him. The 30-year-old Ederson is reportedly open to a move to Saudi Arabia, but City will not let him leave for a low price.

If Ederson leaves, Ortega Moreno, who has impressed as the Brazilian's deputy, would become a strong contender for the starting goalkeeper position. However, City still hopes to bring in a high-level replacement who is expected to provide intense competition for the number one spot.

Meanwhile, Kevin De Bruyne, 33, has also attracted interest from Saudi Arabia. Last month, he publicly admitted that he is open to a move to Saudi Arabia, stating that "in the latter stages of my career," the "incredibly huge sums of money" are very tempting. However, Pep Guardiola denied the possibility of De Bruyne leaving during a press conference on their US tour.

At the same time, Borussia Dortmund is still in talks with Manchester City over a possible £25 million move for Brazilian defender Yan Couto.
