Al-Ittihad willing to splash out on £50m-rated Ederson after Man City reject offer for goalkeeper from Cristiano Ronaldo's Al-Nassr

Saudi Pro League clubs' interest in Manchester City goalkeeper Ederson has intensified in the past few months as after Al-Nassr, former champions Al-Ittihad have now placed a bid for the Brazilian, according to the Daily Mail.

Fabrizio Romano had reported earlier this week that the Cityzens had turned down Al-Nassr's initial bid worth £25 million ($33m/€30 million) for the custodian as the club valued the player in the region of £50 million ($65m/€60 million). The latest report now claims that Al-Ittihad have reportedly agreed to match the reigning Premier League champions' demands.

Per The Sun, City are still trying to negotiate a new deal with their first-choice goalkeeper and are reportedly ready to offer him a weekly salary of £900,000, a substantial signing bonus, and an overall pay increase of 75 per cent.

The 30-year-old is currently in the US along with Pep Guardiola's men who will be next seen in action on Tuesday in their first pre-season match against Celtic in North Carolina.
