Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola has indicated that goalkeeper Ederson, who has garnered interest from Saudi Pro League clubs Al-Nassr and Al Ittihad, faces a pivotal decision regarding his future with the club. Despite having two years remaining on his contract, Guardiola expressed uncertainty about Ederson's status, stating, "he has to see maybe now other options" and highlighting the lack of recent contact regarding his future. As City prepares for the transfer window closure on August 30, they are reportedly exploring potential replacements, including Sunderland’s Anthony Patterson, amid concerns over Ederson's long-term commitment. Guardiola emphasized Ederson's significance in the team's success over the past years and noted the depth of the goalkeeper position at the club. Meanwhile, Guardiola confirmed there is no interest in acquiring a high-profile goalkeeper as a replacement, despite previous speculation. The manager's comments follow City's recent pre-season loss to Celtic, where Ederson played in the second half.
