Manchester City set to decide Ederson’s future amidst Al-Nassr’s mega offer
Manchester City are gearing up for a decisive week as they prepare a final contract extension offer for their star goalkeeper Ederson Moraes, amidst a tempting proposal from Saudi Pro League giants Al-Nassr.
The Premier League champions are reportedly set to present a ‘take it or leave it’ deal to convince the Brazilian shot-stopper to remain at the Etihad Stadium.
The situation escalated following reports from The Sun detailing Al-Nassr’s staggering offer of £900,000 per week to Ederson, along with a substantial signing bonus.
While City cannot match the financial might of their Middle Eastern counterparts, they are prepared to substantially increase Ederson’s wages by 75 percent, potentially securing him a monthly salary of £1 million starting from the upcoming season.
Ederson, whose current contract has two years remaining, holds the leverage of negotiating a new deal or potentially moving on, which could also fetch Manchester City a significant transfer fee in the realm of £50 million if he decides to depart.
The Brazilian goalkeeper is presently enjoying a break following Brazil’s early exit from Copa America 2024. He is expected to rejoin Manchester City later this month and might accompany the team for their upcoming fixtures in the United States.
The decision on Ederson’s future looms large over Manchester City, with fans eagerly awaiting the outcome of negotiations that could see the influential goalkeeper either commit his long-term future to the club or embark on a lucrative new chapter abroad.
