According to the latest report of well-known transfer journalist Romano, the future planning of Manchester City FC in the goalkeeper position has gradually become clear. It is reported that if the current star goalkeeper Ederson finally decides to leave the team, then Werder Bremen's goalkeeper Zettel will be the number one candidate for City to find a new goalkeeper.
Romano pointed out that although Zettel has already renewed his contract with his new owner Werder Bremen until 2027 and is expected to start the new season with the team, this has not prevented Manchester City from paying high attention to him. In fact, apart from City, three other Premier League teams as well as French Ligue 1 rivals Marseille had expressed strong interest in Zettel in July this year and considered the possibility of bringing him in.
Zettel is 29 years old and is in his prime age for the goalkeeper position. He performed well in the Bundesliga last season, making 27 appearances for Werder Bremen, showing consistent play and excellent athleticism. Although Zettel is currently valued at just €3 million on the German transfer market, his actual performance on the pitch far exceeds that valuation.
For Manchester City, if Ederson does leave the team, it will be especially important to find a suitable replacement. Zettel's joining will not only be able to fill this vacancy, but also bring rich game experience and stable defensive security to the team. At the same time, his joining will also inject new vitality and competitiveness into City's goalkeeper position, pushing the team to achieve better results in future matches.
Of course, this is all just rumors and speculation at the moment. Whether or not Zettel will actually join Manchester City will depend on the subsequent developments and the outcome of the negotiations between the various parties. But no matter what, Zettel's outstanding performance and potential has already attracted the attention of many giants, and his future is undoubtedly full of infinite possibilities.
