November 2025

After eight trophy-laden years, Ederson left City for Fenerbahçe citing stagnation and five injuries in 2024–25. Donnarumma’s arrival signaled transition; the Brazilian sought a fresh environment and minutes while keeping title ambitions in Turkey. Ederson emphasized mentality and continuity of off-field work with his trainer. He framed the move as reigniting joy and embracing a title chase at a club hungry for domestic success, targeting immediate impact within a high-intensity fan culture.
