Éderson Confirms His Future at Manchester City: “My Mind Is Here”

The Brazilian goalkeeper Éderson has confirmed his commitment to Manchester City, ensuring his stay at the Etihad Stadium for next season. A year ago, the player was at the center of rumors about a possible departure, due to the interest of clubs from Saudi Arabia. Despite the speculation, Éderson remained at City. Now, with the possibility of teams from the Saudi Pro League trying to sign him again this summer, the goalkeeper has clarified his plans.

My head is here. I’m staying at City. It gives me everything to return to the Premier League and also try to win the Champions League. My mind is at the club.

Al Nassr was one of the clubs that showed interest in Éderson last summer, although coach Pep Guardiola revealed that City never received an offer they considered acceptable.

The goalkeeper, who has one more year on his contract with City, hopes to fulfill it.

My future is here. Some friends send me a lot of news, but 99% of it is fake news. I understand the media. They need news to get “likes” on social media or generate debate. I get it, but there’s a lot of fake news about my name.

Éderson is one of the three goalkeepers that Guardiola has in his squad for the Club World Cup, along with Stefan Ortega and Marcus Bettinelli. Bettinelli signed a one-year contract after joining from Chelsea, while Ortega also has one year left on his contract. Ortega has been linked to a possible transfer to Germany and, for the moment, has not revealed details about his future.

It’s too early for that question [about his future], I can’t say anything about it, it’s too early.
