Ederson is believed to be valued around £50 million, with Al Ittihad prepared to test that resolve in what would be a major signing for the Saudi Pro League.
If he leaves the English champions, then Pep Guardiola will be tasked with replacing his No.1.
But a replacement has already been identified as Ben Jacobs claims Man City have 'approached' Gianluigi Donnarumma.
However, Donnarumma is happy at Paris Saint-Germain and has held 'early-stage' discussions about extending his stay in France.
But the Italian is thought to be interested in playing in the Premier League at some stage in his career.
The 25-year-old made his name at AC Milan, where he graduated from the club's youth academy.
In the summer of 2021, though, he joined PSG on a free transfer.
He's made 114 appearances for the club across all competitions and is widely regarded as one of the best goalkeepers in world football.
As for Ederson, he's been a Man City player since 2017 following his move from Benfica.
He's played 332 games for the club, having been a regular starter under Guardiola.
