JAKARTA - Manchester United is close to reaching an agreement with Atalanta for midfielder Ederson.
Launching ESPN, Manchester United is ready to pay around 35 million pounds (around Rp841 billion) for the Brazilian, who will be the first new player to join Old Trafford this summer.
The Red Devils have made the midfield a priority to strengthen ahead of next season. Casemiro has left on a free transfer and Manuel Ugarte is available if the right offer comes in.
Ederson, 26, is likely to be one of at least two midfielders to join the club this summer.
There is also interest in Mateus Fernandes, who is expected to leave West Ham after they were relegated to the Championship.
Elliot Anderson is another target, but ESPN report that the England international would prefer a move to Manchester City if they can reach an agreed fee with Nottingham Forest.
Manchester United are also said to have snatched up Ederson after his move to Atletico Madrid fell through.
The LaLiga team then turned their attention to Wolverhampton Wanderers midfielder Joao Gomes, who was also a target for Manchester United in January 2026.
Manchester United have agreed personal terms with Ederson and a deal with Atalanta is expected to be finalised shortly.
