WHAT HAPPENED?
As per The Daily Mail, the Saudi Pro League side are looking to make a switch in personnel in-between the sticks this summer.

THE BIGGER PICTURE
The report has suggested that the club, while interested in the Brazilian last summer, were not willing to shell out serious amounts of cash. However, this summer they believe they can tempt Manchester City with a low bid starting at £25m ($31m).

WHAT NEXT FOR EDERSON?
While Stefan Ortega has impressed as Ederson's deputy over the course of the season, it seems highly unlikely that Pep Guardiola would be happy to lose Ederson as he is still one of the best at his job in the world.
