Man Utd can now sign Brazilian star for just £25m

Manchester United have the opportunity to sign Atalanta midfielder Ederson for a knockdown price during the summer transfer window.

Ederson has been a long-term target for the Red Devils and he was initially on their radar before Manuel Ugarte joined two years ago.

The Brazilian has continued to be linked, and it is claimed that he could leave for a cut-price fee when the transfer window reopens.

Ederson will enter the final year of his contract this summer and Atalanta will no longer be in a strong position to negotiate his sale.

The player's agent has already confirmed interest from the Premier League and La Liga in the past, and there should be several bids.

United are long-term admirers of the versatile midfielder. He was a top target when Erik ten Hag was still the manager of the club.

It remains to be seen whether the Mancunian giants will revive their pursuit when the transfer window reopens at the end of the season.
