It should be between Donarumma and Emi as they both won the major trophy plus the goalkeeper of the tournament. Emi won EPL best goalie of the year though, but plays for a small club. Mendy also has a chance as he won the CL.
Ederson? LOL. For revolutionizing the game by being a DM playing GK? But goalkeeper wise, he loves to just stare at the ball go past him.
