Chelsea preparing swoop for Atalanta midfielder?

Chelsea are weighing up a move for Atalanta midfielder Ederson ahead of the summer transfer window, according to Tutto Atalanta.

The Blues are preparing for a busy summer ahead and they are expected to target a marquee midfielder with Enzo Fernandez eyeing an exit.

Fernandez is reportedly determined to make the switch to Real Madrid and his agent has already held informal talks with the La Liga giants.

Furthermore, the World Cup winner is preparing to hand in a transfer request to push for a transfer to Los Blancos in the next transfer window.

Amidst this, the Blues have their sights on landing Ederson from Atalanta as a replacement, but are set to face fierce competition in the pursuit.

Atletico Madrid have already agreed personal terms with the 26-year-old and could act as a stumbling block in the pursuit of the Brazilian.

Atalanta are ready to sell him for around €35 million this summer, considering he has no plans to extend his deal expiring next year.
