Manchester City have their contingency plan in place if Ederson leaves. They will pursue a move for PSG keeper Gianluigi Donnarumma if Ederson leaves. But to get to that point, Ederson’s future must be decided.

It is no secret that City wants to keep Ederson. He is an integral player in Pep Guardiola’s system. Ederson’s ability with his feet is a crucial element in Manchester City’s play. It is almost irreplaceable. But City has seen prominent players leave recently. The time will come when Ederson will leave Manchester City. That could come before the summer transfer window closes.

It is now up to Galatasaray to meet Manchester City’s asking price to sell Ederson. If they do, a club stalwart will leave City. Manchester City has already lined up a replacement goalkeeper, but for that move to occur Ederson’s future needs to be resolved.
