Hmm, a working example of pgdg.list:

cat /etc/apt/sources.list.d/pgdg.list

deb http://apt.postgresql.org/pub/repos/apt focal-pgdg main
deb https://apt-archive.postgresql.org/pub/repos/apt focal-pgdg-archive main

sudo apt update
[sudo] password for aklaver:

Hit:1 http://mirrors.linode.com/ubuntu focal InRelease
Hit:2 http://mirrors.linode.com/ubuntu focal-updates InRelease

Hit:3 http://mirrors.linode.com/ubuntu focal-backports InRelease

Hit:4 http://apt-longview.linode.com focal InRelease

Hit:5 https://apt-archive.postgresql.org/pub/repos/apt
focal-pgdg-archive InRelease
Get:6 http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu focal-security InRelease [114
kB]
Hit:7 http://apt.postgresql.org/pub/repos/apt focal-pgdg InRelease
Get:8 http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu focal-security/main amd64 c-n-f
Metadata [12.0 kB]

So what was the exact problem you got?
