Manchester City are aware that Ederson is in talks with Saudi Pro League clubs and are prepared to allow the goalkeeper to leave the club this summer.

Ederson has been subject of interest from the Saudi Pro League in recent months and has held discussions over a potential transfer to the Middle East.

The Brazil international made 43 appearances in all competitions last season and has been a crucial part of City’s success under Pep Guardiola, where he has won six Premier League titles, six domestic cups, and the Champions League among his honours.

However, the Citizens are prepared to allow Ederson to leave this summer if the goalkeeper decides on a new challenge and are awaiting an opening bid.

Al-Nassr, who signed Aymeric Laporte from City last summer and count Cristiano Ronaldo and Sadio Mane as part of their first-team squad, are interested in a deal for the 30-year-old.

According to Fabrizio Romano, the Premier League champions have no plans to sign a first-choice goalkeeper if Ederson leaves the Etihad and will promote Stefan Ortega to number one status.
