Reports indicate that Atalanta midfielder Ederson has reached a personal agreement on terms with Atletico Madrid. According to transfer insights, the Bergamo club is seeking approximately €40 million for the Brazilian player, although the anticipated deal could materialize between €35-40 million. Ederson, who previously attracted interest from Manchester United, Manchester City, Inter, and Juventus, has reportedly chosen Atletico as his preferred destination.
Since his transfer from Salernitana to Atalanta in 2022, Ederson has significantly progressed, becoming a pivotal player and making a crucial contribution to the team’s Europa League triumph. His absence due to injury was notably felt this season. With his contract extending until June 2027 and the player approaching his 27th birthday, a summer sale seems inevitable.
Although Atletico Madrid and Atalanta still need to finalize the transfer fee, the player’s personal agreement marks a significant step. These two clubs have previously engaged in successful transfer dealings, including transfers for Ademola Lookman, Giacomo Raspadori, and Matteo Ruggeri.
