Ederson has opened up about the 'unusual' offer from Saudi Arabia and one particular conversation with Guardiola that convinced him to stay back at City. The 31-year-old joined the Cityzens from Benfica in 2017 and has won every trophy available to him since his arrival, including six Premier League titles and a Champions League.
Speaking to TNT Sports Brasil, the City star said, "There really was a proposal on the table, something that weighed heavily because it was an unusual proposal… I had countless conversations with Guardiola, and one of them was essential. But from what he told me, the guarantees, the process and the evolution I had with him… All of that was essential for my staying at City."
The goalkeeper is currently on national team duty and could be next seen in action on Wednesday as Brazil host Peru in an important 2026 World Cup qualifying game.
