Pep Guardiola provides unexpected update on Man City goalkeeper situation as mystery surrounds Ederson's future

FIFA Club World Cup

Manchester City

Wydad Casablanca

<p>City's goalkeeper situation has been uncertain over the last year as injury-prone and error-prone Ederson has been linked with an exit from the Etihad, while backup keeper Stefan Ortega is not considered to be a game-changer in goal. As such, the eight-time Premier League champions have been linked with the likes of Porto's Diogo Costa and Espanyol's Joan Garcia.   </p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>Ederson has been a person of interest for a number of Saudi Pro League sides since last summer, and it is expected that offers could be lining up for the Brazilian yet again. As for Ortega, the German goalkeeper is entering the final 12 months of his contract at the Etihad, with a renewal nowhere on the horizon. However, Guardiola has claimed that City are not expecting any changes in regards to their goalkeeping option ahead of next season. </p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>Speaking to the media, Guardiola said: "I don't know much about goalkeepers [joining/leaving City]. I tell them to stay. We've talked about the situation of the squad, and the two goalkeepers we have will stay..." </p><p>Talking about Espanyol's Garcia, the Catalan coach added: "Joan García is a really good goalkeeper, but City are linked with 500 players in every transfer window.</p><p>"He's an Espanyol player and I don't know what happen, but I'm told by the Espanyol guys [playing in the golf event] he's an extraordinary goalkeeper. The references we have are very good."</p>

WHAT GUARDIOLA SAID

<p>Guardiola's side will be in action later this month in the Club World Cup in the United States, where Ederson will most likely be the starter. However, whether the Brazilian will stay put this summer will depend on City's willingness to sell and the offers Ederson receives. </p>
