Man City manager Pep Guardiola clarified the situation surrounding Ederson's potential departure to Saudi Arabia, stating, 'No, he knew from day one that I didn't want it [Ederson to leave]... the truth is that the offer didn't come.' He emphasized that for a player of Ederson's caliber, 'has a value, a price.' This signifies that Ederson's departure was never due to a substantial offer.
Guardiola praised Ederson's contributions to the team, highlighting that 'the keeper, for the team who won four Premier Leagues in a row, has a value, a price.' He made it clear that Ederson remains a key part of the Manchester City setup, stating, 'Otherwise, he cannot leave!'
Guardiola acknowledged there was interest but confirmed it was not serious, asserting that if there had been a 'real offer' for Ederson, it would have been considered. This implies that Man City highly values Ederson and remains unwilling to part with him without a proper deal.
