Italian club set to dig in heels over Brazilian midfielder after potential €45m sale of Nigerian winger
Manchester United’s prolonged hesitation in pursuing Atalanta midfielder Ederson may cost them dearly, with the Serie A club now preparing to block any departure following Ademola Lookman’s impending move to Inter Milan.
Reliable Italian journalist Alfredo Pedullà reports that Atalanta, fresh from selling top scorer Mateo Retegui to Al-Qadsiah for €67.5 million, are closing in on a €45 million deal to send Lookman to Inter. Should the Nigerian winger’s transfer be finalized, La Dea intend to make the 24-year-old Brazilian their final major sale of the summer.
This development throws United’s transfer plans into doubt. The Premier League giants had identified Ederson as a prime midfield target, with Pedullà revealing back in May that multiple discussions had taken place. However, Erik ten Hag’s side prioritized other attacking options like Bryan Mbeumo and Matheus Cunha, potentially missing their window for the all-action midfielder.
Ederson has emerged as one of Serie A’s most complete midfielders over the past two seasons, earning praise from legendary manager Fabio Capello as “world class.” His standout performance in Atalanta’s 3-0 Europa League final demolition of Bayer Leverkusen showcased his remarkable engine, tactical intelligence, and versatility across midfield roles.
With Lookman’s departure set to inject fresh funds, Atalanta now plan to offer Ederson an improved contract despite his existing deal running until 2027. Club officials believe only an “extraordinary offer” could change their stance – a price United may now need to pay if they’re serious about securing one of Europe’s most dynamic midfield talents.
The Brazilian’s statistics tell the story of a modern midfield powerhouse: 13 goals in 100+ appearances since arriving from Salernitana in 2022, combined with elite pressing numbers and relentless box-to-box energy. As United’s midfield search continues, their delay in acting decisively for Ederson may prove a costly miscalculation in this summer’s transfer market.
