In the Trendyol Super Lig, Fenerbahçe drew 2-2 with Çaykur Rizespor in their 30th-week home match after conceding a goal in the final seconds. In particular, goalkeeper Ederson's error in coming off his line in the 90+8th minute changed the fate of the match, and the Yellow-Navy Blues suffered a major blow in the championship race.
After the final whistle, the Brazilian goalkeeper shared his sadness and apology in the team's WhatsApp group, stating, "The responsibility is all mine." While it is known that Ederson has been unhappy at times due to criticism directed at his wife on social media, it was reported that he is seriously considering the possibility of leaving following the Rizespor match.
According to a report by Sabah, the Fenerbahçe management has begun preparations for a meeting by summoning Ederson's agent to Istanbul to make a definitive decision regarding the experienced goalkeeper's future. The management aims to clarify the situation of Ederson, who also receives call-ups to the Brazilian National Team and is under contract until 2028, ahead of the upcoming World Cup.
Following a potential departure of Ederson, who is the highest-paid goalkeeper in Turkish football with an annual salary of 11 million euros, Fenerbahçe will initiate efforts to sign a young and high-potential goalkeeper. The club plans to bring in a top-level goalkeeper aged 24-25.
