Man City Star and Brazil international Ederson Moraes has signed a new contract with Saudi Club for A shocking fee of £40mllion
According to Fabrizio Romano, Manchester City rejected a £25 million bid for their “great” talent.
Manchester City’s Fabrizio Romano has disclosed that they are disappointed with Al-Nassr’s latest approach for one of their key players.
Since Pep Guardiola’s hiring in 2016, City appear to have made it a point to let players to go on their own terms — as long as the buying club meets their cost demands — resulting in a simple and uncomplicated selling policy.
However, if Manchester City believes that the amount in issue does not meet their standards, they will continue to negotiate with the suitor to find the best possible solution for all parties concerned.
According to reports on Tuesday, Al-Nassr is hoping to complete a deal to sign Ederson Moraes within a week. The Saudi Pro League’s top stars include Cristiano Ronaldo, Aymeric Laporte, Sadio Mane, and Marcelo Brozovic.
Andy Townsend rated Ederson as “amazing,” and he was observed in City’s pre-season training, according to the club’s official X account.

According to the Italian journalist, the 30-year-old has agreed to join the Saudi club, but City want more than €50 million (£42 million) to sell their club legend.
Romano has revealed that the deal now rests on both teams in question.
Manchester City should stick to their guns regarding Ederson.
Manchester City have no incentive to unload Ederson this summer, therefore they should stand their position until Al-Nassr agrees to their financial demands.
The veteran goalkeeper remains one of the finest in the world at his position, and if Al-Nassr signs him, he will be one of the few world-class players to join the Saudi Pro League.
Given how vital Ederson is to Manchester City, they have every right to seek a larger sum than £42 million to sell him.
As a result, if Al-Nassr refuses to meet their expectations, City should stand firm and either keep the intriguing goalie or sell him to a more amenable bidder.
