The Athletic wrote an article about Manchester City's latest weekly transfer. The article stated that if there is no suitable choice, Ortega will stay at Manchester City.

Is Manchester City in a better situation now than a year ago?

The team's lineup looks very different. They mentioned in the early January that changes needed, and also mentioned this point again in the early stage of this summer window. But the team is bloated and there are only one week left to close the window, and there are still some questions that are still open. The goalkeeper position is still likely to change, and the right back may not change, and Rico Lewis will stay at the club and a new five-year contract is about to be concluded.

What positions/players are they still focusing on?

Donnarumma is still possible to join Manchester City, the Paris goalkeeper is exploring his other options, and Manchester City is interested in the players, but any deal is based on Ederson's departure from the club.

Which players may leave?

Ederson is Galatasaray's target. Signing Trafford and Bettinel this summer means that Manchester City have four goalkeepers, but if Donnarumma wants to join, Ederson must leave to make a place.

Earlier this summer, it was thought that one of Ederson and Ortega would need to leave Trafford to join, but that was not the case. Nowadays, Ortega is looking for a new owner, but he is still waiting for the right choice, and the club must meet his competitive expectations.

Both the Premier League and Bundesliga clubs are interested in Ortega, and some Championship teams have asked about it, but the players want to serve as the main goalkeeper in a club that is competing for important honors. Currently, there are not many people who are still looking for new goalkeepers in this level, so if there is no suitable option, he will stay at Manchester City, with his contract still one year left.
