Atalanta’s Éderson will complete a move to Manchester United if there are no late setbacks.
The Premier League side are keen on signing him as part of the plan to reshape their midfield and have an agreement with La Dea.
On June 1st, Sport Witness covered claims from Italy that Manchester United have offered €45m plus €3m bonuses. The operation was at an advanced stage and the two clubs were sorting out the final details.
However, the transfer hasn’t gone through yet because Éderson received a late call-up Brazil manager Carlo Ancelotti for the World Cup.
Norway have eliminated Brazil from the tournament, and this now allows the midfielder to complete a move to Old Trafford. On Thursday, we relayed news he will still join the Red Devils despite the delay..
