Real Madrid to battle Manchester United and Manchester City for €60m-rated Serie A star: Reports
According to Diario AS, Real Madrid are set to battle Premier League clubs Manchester City and Manchester United for the services of Atalanta midfielder Ederson. The Brazilian’s impressive performances this season in Serie A have made him a subject of interest from many European heavyweights.
The midfielder joined Atalanta from Serie B side Salernitana in 2022. In his two-plus years plus stay in Bergamo, he has seen his stocks rise as he has become a key player for La Dea. In the ongoing season, the 25-year-old has featured in every match that he was eligible to play for Atalanta, who are currently second on the Serie A table.
Manchester City have reportedly identified Ederson as the ideal replacement for Rodri, who suffered a season-ending injury in September 2024. A few days later, it was reported that Manchester United were hot on the player’s heels and were looking to sign him in the January transfer window.
