Manchester City signs Donnarumma: the Italian will replace Ederson.

According to The Sun: Gianluigi Donnarumma will become the new number one for Manchester City tomorrow after the transfer is finalized for 26 million pounds.

The 26-year-old Italian was actively seeking a new team after being released from PSG in August, where he helped win the Champions League last season.

Manchester City expressed interest in Donnarumma if their goalkeeper Ederson decides to leave the club.

Fenerbahce agreed to a deal worth around 12 million pounds, and the Brazilian has already arrived in Turkey to finalize the transfer.

Donnarumma is currently with the national team, but he has been allowed to undergo a medical examination and sign a contract.

According to club representatives, all deal details were agreed upon in time, and an official announcement is expected soon.

The Italian has signed a five-year contract, securing his place at the club until 2030 with an option to extend for another year.

Friends of Pep Guardiola, Luis Enrique, who took over PSG this summer, adhere to a similar football philosophy.

Although Donnarumma has limitations in playing with the ball, which is important for Guardiola's style, he is still considered one of the best goalkeepers in the world and is likely to replace James Trafford, who played in the first three matches of the season.

Ederson insisted that he would remain with the club until the end of his contract; however, his family is eager to move to Saudi Arabia after eight years in the North West of England.

He leaves Man City having helped the club win six Premier League titles and achieving historical success two years ago.

His deputy, Stefan Ortega, also planned to leave the club, but nothing has changed ahead of the transfer window closing.

Meanwhile, another defender from City's triumphant squad, Manuel Akanji, has joined Inter on loan.

The Italians will pay 870,000 pounds upfront, with an option to buy for 12.5 million pounds in the summer.

Former captain Ilkay Gundogan also completed a transfer to Galatasaray.

The 34-year-old midfielder has not played a single minute for City this season.

Defender Issa Kabore has left the Etihad and joined Wrexham in the Championship on a year-long loan.

TRANSFER OVERVIEW – STAY TUNED FOR ALL THE NEWS AS TIME GOES ON

This transfer opens up new opportunities for Donnarumma, as he gets a chance to showcase his skills at one of the strongest clubs in the world. Manchester City is looking to strengthen its positions in international competitions, and the arrival of the Italian goalkeeper could be not only an important step in the player's career but also a significant boost for the team. At the same time, Ederson's departure means the club is considering new strategic directions that may impact their gameplay this season.
