An unexpected piece of news for European football fans: Manchester City’s main and most experienced goalkeeper Ederson has announced his readiness to continue his career in the Turkish Super League.
According to reports, Turkey’s famous club Galatasaray is showing serious interest in the 31-year-old Brazilian goalkeeper. It is said that Istanbul club head coach Okan Buruk personally held talks with Ederson by phone, invited him to the team, and convinced him to agree to the move.
At this time, the management of Manchester City is not rushing to easily let go of its main goalkeeper. The option of a loan deal did not satisfy the former champion of England at all. The club has also stated that they are ready to consider offers of at least 10 million euros for Ederson, whose contract expires next summer.
Ederson has been playing for Manchester City since 2017. During this period, he has appeared in 372 matches in all competitions, keeping a clean sheet in 168 of them.
It should be noted that Ederson’s move to the Turkish Super League will attract the attention not only of Turkish football but also of all European fans. The new goals and high ambitions of Galatasaray in the new season are directly connected with players of such a high level.
Among fans, there is great interest in how Ederson will perform in Turkey and how he will defend Galatasaray’s goal. On the eve of a new chapter for a goalkeeper with European experience and many titles, Turkish football may rise to a new stage of development.
