Ederson Open to Galatasaray Move With Verbal Agreement In Place – Sky Germany

Manchester City goalkeeper Ederson has a verbal agreement in place with Galatasaray and is open to joining the Turkish side, according to Sky in Germany.

While no formal discussions have yet taken place between City and Galatasaray, sources indicate that Ederson’s new representative, Julio Cesar, has aligned personal terms with the Istanbul club. However, a transfer remains subject to the two clubs reaching a financial agreement.

The development follows speculation regarding City’s plans in the goalkeeper position. James Trafford, currently at Burnley, is a target for a return to the Etihad, while City may also need to resolve the future of Stefan Ortega, who has yet to clarify whether he will assume the No.1 role or seek a move himself.

Ederson has made over 370 appearances for Manchester City and played a central role in the team’s domestic and European dominance under Pep Guardiola. The Brazilian’s potential departure would trigger a significant reshuffle in City’s goalkeeping department.

Conclusion:

While a final decision has yet to be made, the presence of a verbal agreement and City’s active search for alternatives suggest a deal is firmly on the table. All eyes are now on whether formal negotiations between the clubs begin in the coming days.
