Speculations surrounding Ederson potentially leaving Manchester City this summer have been circulating, with reports suggesting a move to the Saudi Pro League (SPL). Despite this, City is not actively looking to part ways with the 30-year-old goalkeeper. It has been implied that Ederson will need to express his desire to leave the Etihad Stadium if he wishes to transfer. With seven years of experience at City and six Premier League titles under his belt, Ederson is an integral part of the team. However, if he decides to move on, the club is confident in finding a suitable replacement.
Another player whose future at Manchester City is in question is Stefan Ortega, Ederson’s understudy. With his contract expiring in 2025, negotiations for an extension are currently ongoing. City has made an offer to the 31-year-old but it remains unsigned. Ortega faces a dilemma between staying as second-choice at City or searching for regular first-team opportunities elsewhere. Despite Guardiola’s admiration for Ortega, the possibility of him becoming a No.1 somewhere else is being considered.
On a more positive note, there is optimism surrounding Bernardo Silva’s future at Manchester City. The midfielder, who has a £50 million release clause, has expressed interest in a new challenge after seven years with the club. While Barcelona and Paris Saint-Germain have previously shown interest, it appears that Barcelona’s financial constraints and PSG’s shift in priorities may hinder any potential transfer. City, however, is open to exploring other options.
In an effort to revamp the squad, Manchester City is open to offers for Kalvin Phillips and is even willing to consider another loan move for him. The midfielder struggled during his loan spell at West Ham in the latter part of the season. Everton has emerged as a potential destination for Phillips, indicating that changes could be on the horizon for both parties.
Overall, the future of certain Manchester City players remains uncertain. While some, like Ederson, may potentially seek a new challenge, others, such as Bernardo Silva, may continue to be a part of the squad. The club is prepared for any developments and is ready to adapt to ensure the success of the team moving forward.
