Manchester City are struggling in Rodri’s absence, losing four games in a row in all competitions.
Many believe they need cover in midfield and one player they have been linked with is Atalanta’s Ederson, who has impressed in the heart of the park for the Italian side.
Mundo Deportivo mentioned two days ago that all three of Manchester City, Juventus and Paris Saint-Germain are keen on landing the midfielder.
Calciomercato today mention the Citizens as an interested club and state the club are ‘serious’ about signing the 25-year-old.
They report that whilst Juve and Paris Saint-Germain are also in the race for Ederson, it is the English club who are leading the race – for now.
Pep Guardiola has been left impressed by the Brazil international’s constant improvement over the past two seasons and sees the player as someone who can elevate Manchester City’s midfield.
Atalanta don’t want to sell in January and a move will only take place in the summer, unless a huge offer arrives on the table.
The asking price is currently at €60m and only an offer around that fee can force La Dea into a sale in January.
