Manchester City manager, Pep Guardiola has named the goalkeeper that will replace Brazilian, Ederson if his deal with Saudi Pro League side pulls through.
Ederson is being heavily linked with a move to Saudi Arabia, with Al Ittihad especially keen on his signature.
According to Guardiola, Ederson has grown in the game and mature enough to step in as the number goalie.
Football transfer expert, Fabrizio Romano, tweeted on Monday: โ In the event that รderson leave Man City to join Saudi Pro League, Man Cityโs starting GK would be Stefan Ortega.
โTalks City-Al Ittihad for รderson ongoing but nothing done or easy.
โNo interest in bringing in โbig nameโ as GK despite links with Donnarumma, Oblak and more.โ
