Atalanta’s Ederson has been impressive and consistent for the Bergamo side, and transfer interest is very much justified.
The Brazilian put in another performance of note against Arsenal in the Champions League yesterday and that is making many wonder how long Ederson can stay at Atalanta.
Corriere dello Sport report today that Newcastle United could have landed the midfielder in January.
The outlet claim that the Magpies were looking for a player who could replace Sandro Tonali during his ban and then improve the midfield going forward, and this led to them knocking on La Dea’s doors.
They felt that the Europa League – which they eventually won, was well within their reach and they were not going to sell another major star after Rasmus Hojlund’s sale last summer.
Manchester United, who signed Hojlund, are also keeping tabs on Ederson.
