Pep Guardiola insists he wants Ederson to remain at Manchester City after being linked with a move to Saudi Arabia in the summer transfer window.
The Brazilian goalkeeper was the subject of a bid from Al-Nassr, which was rejected by the Premier League club for being well below their valuation of the player, while Al-Ittihad have reportedly registered an interest in his signature.
Following defeat to Celtic in a pre-season friendly in midweek, Guardiola suggested that Ederson, who has two years left on his contract, could leave the club.
“I don’t know – he has to see maybe now other options,” he said. “Of course I’d like him to stay. Depends now the clubs. I don’t know the situation, no contact in the last days. A question of training and being with us until the transfer window finishes and we see what happens.
