Donnarumma agrees personal terms with City, pending Ederson future

Gianluigi Donnarumma has agreed personal terms to join Manchester City but the transfer cannot be completed until the club finalises the future of current first choice goalkeeper Ederson, sources and transfer journalist Fabrizio Romano said on Sunday as the summer window enters its final days. City and Paris Saint Germain remain in club to club talks over a fee for the Italy international, who has been made available by PSG after failing to agree a new contract and being replaced by Lucas Chevalier.

Romano reported that Donnarumma, 26, has accepted City’s contract offer and is keen to work under Pep Guardiola, but that any permanent move depends on Ederson leaving the Etihad. The Brazilian, 32, has been linked with Galatasaray, with negotiations said to be ongoing, although Turkish interest has so far fallen short of City’s valuation. Club sources and media reports have given a range of possible transfer figures, from PSG’s initial request of about 50 million down to proposals in the region of 30 to 35 million, and some outlets have suggested the fee could be even lower under time pressure. Those figures remain subject to the outcome of the club negotiations.
