Manchester City continues to track the market in search of a midfielder to fill the void left by Rodri's injury. This time, the chosen one by Pep Guardiola would be Ederson, the current star of Atalanta. The Brazilian midfielder, a key player in Gian Piero Gasperini's team, has drawn the attention of several European giants, but the Catalan coach has reportedly requested his incorporation specifically for next summer.

Since arriving in Bergamo, Ederson has shown steady growth. With 107 matches played, nine goals, and three assists, he has become an essential element in Atalanta's tactical scheme. His ability to recover balls, start plays, and bring dynamism to the midfield has not gone unnoticed, both in his club and in the Brazilian national team, where he was first called up last June.

Atalanta aims to profit from the Brazilian's departure

As reported by 'Calciomercato,' Atalanta, aware of the interest in their player, is not willing to negotiate his departure in the winter transfer market. However, they have already set an initial price of 60 million euros, a figure that Manchester City is reportedly willing to seriously consider. Besides the English club, teams like Paris Saint-Germain and Juventus are also closely monitoring the player.

Atalanta's management will seek alternatives before finalizing any transfer, maintaining the working line that has characterized the club in recent years under Gasperini's guidance. It will be an intense market for the Bergamo team.
