Goalkeepers Front and Centre: Donnarumma to City? Ederson’s Future in Focus

August 27, 2025

Manchester City are reportedly closing in on a deal for Gianluigi Donnarumma, with multiple sources confirming he has reached personal terms with the club. Paris Saint-Germain have significantly lowered their asking price—some reports citing as little as £26 million—making negotiations more feasible after previously rejecting City's interest in the Italian goalkeeper.

The move hinges heavily on the future of current first-choice keeper Ederson, who is linked with a transfer to Galatasaray. His departure would clear the path for City to finalize the Donnarumma deal before the end of the transfer window.

This development comes as competition for City’s roster intensifies, with pressure mounting from Arsenal’s aggressive transfer market activity and rival clubs like Liverpool shaking up the landscape.
