Manchester City's second door renewal deadlock! Left the team in the summer window to become the main force of strength, and the prospect of the main force in the upper position is slim?
On March 5, Beijing time, Predenberg of Germany's "Sky Sports" revealed that Manchester City had made a new contract with Ortega Moreno due to the issue of the new contract.
Ortega started eight of his nine Premier League appearances this season, largely due to the elimination of the German goalkeeper in the English Cup. Ottega made 14 appearances for the club last season, helping them win the FA Cup and Europa League treble.
Ortega is a good goalkeeper who makes a good save and Guardiola is interested in his skills. Ortega was considered the favourite to win the German league this summer, but in the end he opted for the Etihad. However, the new contract between Ortega and Manchester City has been stalled as his contract expires in 2025.
There are two issues between the two parties, the first of which is the issue of wages. Ortega is a low-income group with a team salary of just £35,000 a week. The 20-year-old Oscar Bob has already reached 5 W a week after his new contract expires, so Ortega's request for a salary increase is not too much. It won't be difficult for Manchester City to keep him satisfied.
One of the biggest reasons is that Ortega wants to start. As good as he is, City would never grant such a request. This is the goalkeeper of the Brazilian national team, Ederson, who has a stable position on the field. Since his move to Manchester City in 2017, he has been the first choice for the Blues. His superb technique at his feet and his precise goals have met Guardiola's expectations of a goalkeeper well. In this game, you can often see Ederson calmly leading his players to pass the ball in the back. In one game, when City were given a penalty opportunity, he was almost impatient to go for it, but it was blocked by goalkeeper Bseat. However, it also shows that the Brazilian goalkeeper is still very confident in his skills at the feet.
Of course, compared to his dribbling skills, Ederson's defence is somewhat lacking, and he was once called"Shot King"。But with Ortega's arrival, Ederson's sense of crisis has also allowed him to reinforce his own shortcomings, and his goal-line skills have improved considerably. In last season's UEFA Champions League, Ederson practiced hard five times not to concede a single goal, and he helped his side win the title. Ederson has scored eight goals in 26 appearances this season, just one less than Raya.
At the age of 30, Ederson is in the prime of life, and as long as he does not make a series of mistakes or injuries, he will not be the first choice of the team. If Ortega is to become a regular in the first team, then his only way out is to leave Manchester City. With his ability, he could be part of a five-level club, and it is even possible to return to Germany to join Bayern Munich's successor, Manuel Neuer. If he leaves, Manchester City will definitely give him face and the fans will give him good wishes.
