Atalanta has been in discussions with Ederson’s representative regarding a contract extension for several weeks. However, the midfielder is reportedly drawn to the possibility of playing in the Premier League, despite significant interest from Juventus.
Ederson’s current agreement with Atalanta extends until 2027. Numerous clubs have been closely watching the 25-year-old, who has distinguished himself as a highly versatile and effective midfielder in European football due to his consistent high-level performances.
Manchester City, Liverpool, and Real Madrid have also been mentioned as potential destinations for Ederson. Nevertheless, reports suggest that Manchester United are currently leading the pursuit. They are allegedly preparing a €60 million offer, which could be sufficient to convince Atalanta to sell their key player in the upcoming summer transfer window.
Juventus’ director, Cristiano Giuntoli, is a known admirer of the adaptable midfielder and is determined to do everything possible to bring him to Juventus Stadium.
However, Manchester United might leverage Ederson’s ambition to experience the Premier League, along with Atalanta’s potential hesitation to sell another prominent player to Juventus after the transfer of Teun Koopmeiners, to finalize a transfer.
