Man Utd set to sign Arsenal target for £46m

Manchester United are poised to land the signature of Arsenal target Ederson from Atalanta, according to Sport Italia.

The Red Devils are expected to strengthen their defensive midfield department this summer, and it has been claimed that they could pursue two signings for the position.

Ederson has emerged as one of them, and reports claim that the Red Devils have almost closed a deal with Atalanta. They are prepared to pay £46m for his services this summer.

An agreement is almost done on all fronts, and it could be a matter of time before he makes the switch to Old Trafford. This is a potential blow for the Gunners, who also have him on their radar.

Ederson has been identified as a potential replacement for Christian Norgaard. The Gunners may have to look elsewhere with United on the verge of landing Ederson from Atalanta.

Ederson has already agreed terms over a five-year deal with Man United.
