Cristiano Ronaldo’s Al Nassr Hit With $54 Million Price Tag on Their Target Manchester City Star- Reports

Fabrizio Romano stunned the soccer world by giving an exclusive report that Ederson could leave Manchester City. According to the transfer guru, there is considerable interest from the Saudi clubs. One among these is Cristiano Ronaldo’s Al Nassr. Although the Brazilian is said to have the final word on a potential transfer, his club Manchester City will not stand in his way. As a matter of fact, the Sky Blues have slapped a price tag on their #1. Considering their goalkeeping predicament, will Al Nassr take the plunge?

As per Caught Offside, Ederson is attracting interest from both Al Nassr and Al Ittihad. The report states that an offer of $54 million would convince the Sky Blues. The situation would be of particular interest to Al Nassr. David Ospina has been impressive for the Knights of Najd in the last few months. The former Napoli man has brought all his experience into play and helped keep the defense tight. However, the problem is that the Colombian star’s contract runs out in June. According to the latest reports, Ospina is not interested in continuing with Cristiano Ronaldo & Co.

On the other hand, Ederson has won everything at Manchester City. After last year’s treble, the player has achieved a historic 4th consecutive league title. Hence, it is understandable as to why the Brazilian might be interested in a fresh challenge. A move to Saudi and playing with the likes of Cristiano Ronaldo is exactly this. But why is Manchester City open to selling one of their best players? Let’s dive in.

The ‘world-class’ star who might help Cristiano Ronaldo’s Al Nassr sign Ederson

Selling a world-class goalkeeper like Ederson is a big blow to all sides. Fortunately, Manchester City already has a replacement in Stefan Ortega. The German international stepped up when Ederson was out due to an eye injury. It’s safe to say that his performances impressed everyone. The German made a stunning save against Tottenham which earned rave reviews from Pep Guardiola. Regarding the same, the Spaniard said, “Ortega is a world-class goalkeeper. An exceptional, exceptional goalkeeper.”

The ease with which Ortega played in the decisive end of the season speaks volumes of his character. Having joined the Sky Blues in 2022, he knows well the style of play at the Etihad. Moreover, at 31, the German is relatively young for a goalkeeper. Hence, Ortega could be the unlikely force that drives a potential transfer of Ederson to Cristiano Ronaldo’s Al Nassr. Will it happen? Let’s wait and watch.
