If either Ederson or Stefan Ortega were to go beforehand, that might force the club's hand a bit more An interesting 12 hours ahead. It would be great to get the players in before the Club World Cup starts and get them used to Pep Guardiola's system. We need to do our business early in the transfer market and not leave it until the end of August to get them in. We also need to offload the players that aren't in Pep Guardiola's plans for the We want the three players' deals to be completed before 10 June ends. There is too much delay from the recruitment team at the I think City should keep their younger players, get rid of those that are not needed and not buy any midfielders this season. We definitely need a new goalkeeper.

Nico O'Reilly 'taking his opportunity'
Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola talking to BBC Match of the Day: "It was massively important. We have three games at home and two away. They are tough games. Stefan Ortega saved the balls that he needed too and the players made a step up in the second half. We were more incisive. I'm really pleased with the game we made in the second half. The players performed really well, all of them."On Nico O'Reilly: "He's not really a left-back. I would say all of our left-backs score, Josko Gvardiol before and now Nico. He is an attacking midfielder. We have passes, passes and passes and then we can arrive brilliantly into that position. He's arrived from the academy and is helping us a lot. I am more than grateful. He is taking his opportunity."On whether O'Reilly has grown in confidence and mentally in the past few months: "For sure. He can improve, he is young. But when you play every day and you're playing it is because you can do it. Our fans love him because they love academy players. He is another player that can help us."On whether the players are motivated: "We are fourth now. This week is massively important. Goodison Park, at home to Villa and then the FA Cup semi-final. To start winning the game and especially how we played in the second half is really important."

It appears that Manchester City are making moves to address their goalkeeping situation As the end of the 24/25 season approaches Manchester City are busy planning for the summer transfer window. Several positions do need to be strengthened in Pep Guardiola's squad. One of those could be the goalkeeper position. Based on recent reports it seems that the world champions are busy making moves to address the goalkeeping situation. Question marks surround the futures of Ederson and Stefan Ortega. If one were to depart Manchester City this summer they will need to sign a new keeper. It does appear to be a situation that City are addressing based on a new report.

Furthermore, Mullock reports that Bayer Leverkusen officials recently visited the Etihad campus to discuss signing James McAtee and Stefan Ortega this summer. Mullock further reports that Stefan Ortega could be open to a move to Bayer Leverkusen to play more often next season. Second of all, it has previously been reported on Esteemed Kompany that Ederson is likely to leave Manchester City this summer. The Brazilian international has attracted interest from Saudi Pro League clubs and across Europe. Ederson's future is another story to watch for over the coming weeks. If he decides to leave City will need to find another goalkeeper. The Stefan Ortega situation also clouds the situation unfolding at the Etihad. Manchester City may already be making moves to bring in a new goalkeeper. A new report from Steve Kay for Football Transfers that Manchester City have begun talks with Benfica keeper Anatoliy Trubin. Furthermore, Kay reports that negotiations are underway for City to sign Trubin. Kay further reports that City are prepared to pay €25 million for the Ukrainian international. Benfica are demanding €40 million to sell their number-one keeper. Advertisement Based on all of the available reports it appears that Manchester City are attempting to get in front of the unfolding goalkeeper situation at the club. That is a smart move from the world champions. They don't want to be caught out if Ederson and Stefan Ortega do seek moves elsewhere this summer. Manchester City do need to undertake a sizable rebuild this summer. They can't afford to be caught out with any of their planning. Based on Steve Kay's report it seems that City are on the front foot in their search for a keeper. Anatoliy Trubin could be the player City has identified to come in if Ederson or Stefan Ortega do depart the club. Manchester City's goalkeeping situation is one story to monitor this summer. It's a fluid situation and it has the potential to continue to develop over the coming months.
