In a recent interview with ESPN Brasil, Manchester City goalkeeper Ederson personally announced his decision to remain at City, news that undoubtedly gave City fans a piece of mind.
The shifting transfer market this summer has seen Ederson's name closely linked with a number of clubs in the Saudi League, with Riyadh Victory and Jeddah United both showing keen interest in him. Despite reports that Ederson had accepted high offers from Saudi Arabia, the transfer ultimately failed to materialize as City and those clubs failed to agree on a transfer fee.
Amidst the joyous atmosphere of winning the Community Shield, Ederson finally revealed his decision to the outside world. He made it clear: "The speculation about a transfer is over. I will stay, especially after an in-depth conversation with the players, my coach, the goalkeeper coach and the club's senior management, I am even more determined in this decision. At the same time, I've had a full discussion with my family and it's a decision we've made together. We will stay at Manchester City for a few more years and continue to contribute my strength to the team."
Ederson's retention is undoubtedly good news for Manchester City. As an important part of the team's backline, his stable play and outstanding performance has been one of the key factors for City to stay competitive in the EPL and Europe. With Ederson confirmed to stay in the team, City fans can also look forward to the team's wonderful performance in the new season with more peace of mind.
