Manchester United is preparing to strengthen its midfield during the summer transfer window, having set Brazilian Atalanta star Ederson as a primary target, especially with the duo Christian Eriksen and Casemiro nearing exits from Old Trafford.
According to reports from the newspaper ‘AS’, Atalanta has set the player’s price at £63 million, benefiting from his contract running until the summer of 2027. Ederson is considered one of the best midfielders in Serie A this season, attracting the interest of major clubs like Liverpool and Tottenham, but Manchester United appears to be the most serious.
Rubén Amorim, the manager of the Red Devils, hopes to sign Ederson to provide an ideal replacement for Casemiro, thanks to his ability to intercept and move offensively from deep.
It is noted that Ederson has previously expressed his desire to experience the English Premier League, despite his current commitment to Atalanta.
