Manchester City could lose a key player. Guardiola admits uncertainty after loss to Celtic, interest is in Saudi Arabia

Manchester City have had another successful season. It made history as the first club in England to win four league titles in a row. No wonder some are already looking for new challenges. That’s also why Pep Guardiola is worried about losing one of his key players.

• Manchester City have begun preparations for the new season
• In their first friendly, they fell to Celtic
• But Pep Guardiola fears losing one of his stars

The currently reigning top English club is preparing for another season in which it will be attacking to break more records. One of them could be a historic fifth title in a row. Apart from that, Manchester City will definitely attack the Champions League trophy as well.

However, this may be without one of their main stars. After seven years, Pep Guardiola may lose his number one goalkeeper. At 30, Ederson is eager to face new challenges. Rather surprisingly, however, he could leave Europe.

However, he still struck in his first friendly match in preparation on Tuesday night. He played one half against Celtic. The Scottish side surprisingly defeated the English hegemon 4: 3. Was it the Brazilian goalkeeper’s last game in a Citizens jersey? That’s the question.

Guardiola also spoke about Ederson’s future after the game. Manchester City would have to look for a new number one, which would not be easy. However, in recent days, there has been speculation that PSG’s Gianluigi Donnarumma could head to England.

Will Ederson leave Manchester City?

Manchester City will face AC Milan, Barcelona and Chelsea before the start of the season. The season kicks off on August 10 against Manchester United in the FA Community Shield. With the start of the new season fast approaching, it is important that Pep Guardiola has the goalkeeping situation sorted as soon as possible.

Ederson has been linked with a move to Saudi Arabia, where there is a lot of interest in him. Specifically, Al-Ittihad is offering around €50 million for the Citizens number one, according to foreign media. The Brazilian has already agreed personal terms with the club and is said to be looking forward to a new challenge.

And what does Guardiola have to say? “I want him to stay, but it depends and other clubs. I don’t know what the situation is. There has been no contact in the last few days,” Goal quotes him as saying. So the legendary strategist is just waiting to see how this case will turn out.

Ederson has won six league titles with the English club, dominated the FA Cup four times, the League Cup and FA Community Shield twice, the Champions League once, the UEFA Super Cup and the Club World Cup.
