Italian journalist Fabrizio Romano has outlined why Atalanta and Brazil international defensive midfielder Ederson would be a good signing for Manchester United in the summer transfer window.
Romano said about Ederson and Man Utd on his YouTube channel: “And then guys, keep an eye also on another player, and that name is Ederson, the Brazilian midfielder from Atalanta.
“Because what’s happening with Ederson is that Atletico Madrid have an agreement with the player on personal terms already since February, March, but, at the moment, Atletico Madrid are not willing to pay what Atalanta want for Ederson.
“Atalanta start from €45million, maybe could be negotiated around €40m, something around that, but negotiating with Atalanta is never easy for any club.
“And so, now, from what I understand, Premier League clubs are also calling for Ederson.
“So, if Atalanta and Atletico Madrid are not able to close this deal for the Brazilian midfielder, keep an eye on the situation also with Premier League clubs, because, you remember that Man Utd were tracking him already when Ruben Amorim was the coach.
“He has always been appreciated by people at the club.
“Let’s see if Man Utd decide to return on this one, but Ederson could be attractive because he’s out of contract in 2027, could be a very good opportunity.
“He’s not on a crazy salary, so the salary could be a factor financially.
“You can get a very good player on a normal price in terms of the full package – salary, commission and then obviously transfer fee, but Atalanta insist on €45m.
“So, Premier League clubs also calling and attentive to the situation for Ederson after Atletico Madrid have an agreement with the player, but not yet with Atalanta.”
