<p>Ederson’s time at City may be nearing its conclusion as Pep Guardiola begins reshaping his squad ahead of the upcoming campaign. Although City have yet to issue a formal response to the bid, the initial figure is considered significantly below market value for a player of Ederson’s calibre and pedigree, as reported by <a href="https://www.lequipe.fr/Football/Actualites/Mercato-galatasaray-fait-une-offre-de-3m-et-8364-a-manchester-city-pour-ederson/1579083" target="_blank"><em>L'Equipe.</em></a></p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>Since his arrival in 2017 from Benfica in a £35m ($47m) deal, Ederson has been an <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/ederson-99-fake-news-man-city-lid-future-talk-man-city-diogo-costa/blt1c685906a960a676" target="_blank">integral part of City’s domestic and European dominance</a>. Across 372 appearances in all competitions, the 31-year-old has recorded an impressive 168 clean sheets and contributed to a trophy-laden era under Guardiola. His honours include six Premier League crowns, two FA Cups, four EFL Cups and the coveted UEFA Champions League among other successes.</p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>While Galatasaray have made the first concrete move, they are not alone in their pursuit. <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/ederson-saudi-arabia-goalkeeper-talks-al-ittihad-follows-kevin-de-bruyne-bernardo-silva-man-city/blt8cbfaa6110c6a730" target="_blank">Saudi Arabian sides Al-Nassr and Al-Ittihad</a> have also shown strong interest in signing Ederson and are expected to remain in contention. Both clubs are reportedly prepared to offer lucrative packages to tempt the Brazilian to the Middle East. Nevertheless, Galatasaray's edge lies in Ederson’s enthusiasm for their sporting project and potential Champions League involvement, which may weigh heavily in his decision-making process.</p>

TELL ME MORE

<p>City have already begun planning for life beyond Ederson. <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/man-city-ederson-replacement-pep-guardiola-barcelona-raid-marc-andre-ter-stegen-goalkeeper-tension/bltb4e8af205f553fdf" target="_blank">Barcelona’s Marc-Andre ter Stegen</a> is one of several goalkeepers being monitored, but a potential surgery could see him continue in Spain. Moreover, Porto’s Diogo Costa and Paris Saint-Germain’s Gianluigi Donnarumma have also been linked as potential successors.</p>

DID YOU KNOW?

<p>Ederson’s potential departure marks the end of an era at the Etihad. If the move materialises, Galatasaray will be acquiring a goalkeeper with a championship pedigree, elite-level experience and the hunger for a fresh chapter. Whether the Turkish giants can meet City’s financial expectations remains to be seen, but for now, the ball is firmly in the Premier League side's court.</p>
