Not settled but sounding positive.

Fabrizio says Ederson considering a big offer from Saudi Arabia. He has a contract till 2026. A nudge to Txiki to extend it?

Will be very surprised. Keepers can play until 40, he could go Saudi in a few years easily.

Why not just keep both?

Apologies

Hope both will stay, I think it is the best period of gk for us since Given and Hart.

But I understand why Eddie would want to go. The problem is who will we try and get?

Why on earth would he want to go. At 30 he is in his prime as a goalkeeper.

And surely he has everything he can ever want with us?

especially to saudi... no team over there is capable of playing out from the back like we can. he will end up being horribly exposed - city / pep is perfect for him.

Surely this talk of him leaving is a piss take?
Why the hell would he want to leave the best team in the world!

Most probably dreamt up by a rag seeing as how there is an important game coming up on Saturday

We’ve seen this numerous times before and it’ll be water of a ducks back to our lads

I doubt Ortega will play second fiddle any longer and he is 100% right if that is how he feels.

IF one has to go Id sell Ederson.

Let’s get the cup won first.

It's not how he feels though. He said this weekend he's happy to stay next season. He has a year left on his contract btw.l
So one doesn't have to go- it's if Eddie's head gets turned by the Saudi money but he's in his peak years, not the end of his career.

It’s all about ‘what if ’ but of course he’s happy to stay another year as then he will be free to leave with a big signing on fee without us getting a fee for him (he’s worth over 20 million )
I’d imagine the talks are all about him extending his contract but only if he’s going to play more games than just the local cup games .

We certainly won’t stand by and allow a one year contract run down - it’s perfect business sense to do something about it now .

Why wouldn't he stay? We plucked him from footballing obscurity.

They are talking about an extension apparently but there's no way they will be guaranteeing more game time beyond the domestic cups.
Why wouldn't we let a one year contract run down. We'd only get decent money if there was a couple of years plus and we'd have to pay the big bucks to replace him.There's your business sense.
The question is on Ederson staying- he's got a couple of years left. which i really hope he does. Pretty sure he's got 2 years left so i hope we extend.
