A recent report from Mundo Deportivo has revealed that Manchester City and Paris Saint-Germain have joined Juventus in the race for Atalanta star Ederson. Now, another Premier League club is also getting involved.
According to a Spanish newspaper, Atalanta has reportedly set Ederson’s asking price at €60 million and is firm in its stance, unwilling to accept any offers below that amount.
Since joining Gian Piero Gasperini’s squad from Salernitana in the summer of 2022, the 25-year-old has become an integral part of the team’s starting lineup.
This week, TEAMtalk revealed that Manchester City have contacted Ederson’s representatives to explore his potential interest in moving to the Etihad.
However, Atalanta are proving to be the biggest hurdle, with the Serie A club making it clear they will not sell for anything less than €50 million. The outlet also reported that there is no room for negotiation on this price.
