There were reports claiming Ederson was jealous of second choice goalkeeper Stefan Ortega, who received a lot of praise during the title run-in when the Brazilian was injured.

However, the first choice goalkeeper was quick to rubbish those claims and claimed he would be staying at the Etihad Stadium.

The 31-year-old has now confirmed there was a serious offer on the table from Saudi Arabia.

"There really was a proposal on the table, something that weighed heavily because it was an unusual proposal...," Ederson told TNT Sports Brasil.

"I had countless conversations with Guardiola, and one of them was essential.

"But from what he told me, the guarantees, the process and the evolution I had with him... All of that was essential for my staying at City."
