Manchester City and Galatasaray have reportedly struck an agreement over a deal worth €10 million for 31-year-old Brazilian international Ederson Moraes.

According to a report by Sabah, as relayed by Sport Witness, Ederson Moraes is the subject of interest from Galatasaray. The Turkish giants are keen on reinforcing their first-team squad by signing a goalkeeper in the summer transfer window. So, the 31-year-old Manchester City veteran has emerged as a target for Cimbom.

The Turkish Super Lig champions have secured an agreement with Manchester City to sign the experienced goalkeeper in a deal worth €10 million. However, the former SL Benfica goalkeeper has yet to accept Galatasaray’s contract offer, as he wants €10 million-a-year wages, and Cimbom will hope to tie him to a €7.5 million-a-year salary.

Ederson Moraes and his Manchester City spell

Ederson Moraes has been one of the best goalkeepers in the world since joining Manchester City from SL Benfica in a deal worth €40 million in July 2017. While the 31-year-old has been error-prone at times in the last eight years, his ability on the ball has made him an asset for Pep Guardiola.

The Brazilian international has turned out over 350 times thus far for Manchester City while keeping 168 clean sheets and conceding 311 goals. However, the veteran goalkeeper’s long-term future at Manchester City is uncertain, with Galatasaray among the prospective suitors vying for his signature in the summer transfer window.

What next for the Manchester City mainstay?

Galatasaray’s interest in Ederson Moraes makes sense. The 2024/25 Turkish Super Lig winners are combing the market for a top-class goalkeeper this summer after parting ways with their long-serving captain Fernando Muslera. So, the Manchester City mainstay has been a viable target for Galatasaray throughout the early stages of the summer transfer window.

The Turkish champions have now found an agreement to sign the former SL Benfica stopper in the summer transfer window. Manchester City will part ways with the veteran goalkeeper in a deal worth €10 million, with only personal terms left for the player to join Galatasaray.

The 31-year-old Brazilian international wants €10 million-a-year wages to join Galatasaray, while the Turkish heavyweights will look to tie him to a contract with a €7.5 million-a-year salary. While recent reports have suggested that personal terms are not an issue, Ederson’s move to Turkiye has some time before it sees the light of day.
