Manchester City is negotiating with Marseille to sign Argentine goalkeeper Gerónimo Rulli as a backup for Ederson, following James Trafford's expected move to Leeds United. According to Foot Mercato reporters, City has offered €2 million, while Marseille is holding out for €3.5 million. Marseille is adjusting its goalkeeper lineup and has prioritized Toulouse's Guillaume Restes as a target, making Rulli available for transfer. Rulli is reportedly keen on joining Manchester City and willing to leave Marseille. Although a fee gap remains, all parties are optimistic about reaching an agreement. The negotiations are described as progressing smoothly but have not yet concluded.
