  WHAT HAPPENED?

  Per Fabrizio Romano, the Saudi Pro League giants have launched an initial bid worth €30m (£25m) to sign Manchester City custodian Ederson this summer. The Premier League champions, however, are set to reject the offer as they will demand a fee in excess of €50m (£42m).

  THE BIGGER PICTURE

  The Brazilian has reportedly agreed to make a move to the Middle East after Al-Nassr offered him a whopping £900,000-a-week deal. The Premier League champions, on the other hand, will place a final 'take it or leave it' offer in front of the star goalkeeper to prevent him from joining Cristiano Ronaldo's side.

• DID YOU KNOW?

  With the Brazil international's existing contract set to expire in two years, time is running out for the English club to earn a hefty transfer fee. If he does not agree to put pen to paper on the new contract, City are expected to sell him.
