Overview

• City confirmed Donnarumma’s arrival from Paris Saint‑Germain on a five-year contract, with the fee widely reported at about £26m (€35m).
• Ederson completed a permanent move to Fenerbahce after eight years at the Etihad, a departure the club presented as paving the way for the new signing.
• The Turkish transfer window staying open facilitated Ederson’s reported £12m switch after England’s deadline had passed.
• Donnarumma is expected to become Guardiola’s first-choice goalkeeper, with summer signing James Trafford set to drop out of the starting role.
• PSG made Donnarumma available after signing Lucas Chevalier and omitting him from their Super Cup squad, and analysts are questioning how his ball-playing suits City’s possession approach.
