The Brazilian goalkeeper has been heavily linked with a move away from the Etihad this transfer window, with Al-Ittihad and Al-Nassr interested in his signature, though the latter reportedly pulled out of 🤡the race.

Pep Guardiola is keen to keep his goalkeeper at the club, say🍌ing "I wish from the bottom of my heart Eddie will continue with us" when asked about the prospect of him leaving.

Ederson ha🐼s proved an integral figure for City since arriving from Benfica in 2017, making 332 appearances in all competitions and keeping 155 clean sheets.

The 30-year-old is currently on City's pre-season tour of the United States having missed the ꧃Copa America with an eye injury,&nb♈sp;and started their 3-2 defeat to Milan in New York on Saturday.

Speaking after that game, Ederson admitted he still did not know where his future lies, but welcome🌟d the p🐻raise from Guardiola.

"There isn't a decision y🎃et," he said. "To hear Pep saying that was very gratifying.

"It's now my eighth season with him, living many good moments, also some bad ones. He's a guy who is easy to work with, he's a football genius and everyone knows that. So, it's really💮 good to hear that from him.

"I'm happy here, having a good moment with my team-mates. I'm enjoying as well to get my fitness back on track. I'm very calm, whatever happens is in God's hands aꦐnd he knows the right way to go. Whateve♔r he gives me I'll be happy with."

City's next f🧜riendly on their pre-season tour will see them face Guardiola's former side Barcelona in Orlando on Tuesday.
