Ederson Awaiting Manchester United's Final €45 Million Transfer Decision
In an unexpected turn of events, it's now being reported that Manchester United has not yet made a definitive decision regarding the purchase of Ederson from Atalanta, following his medical examinations.
The transfer, initially agreed upon on June 2nd for €40.5 million plus an additional €4.5 million in potential add-ons, faced a delay. This was due to the player's participation with Brazil in the 2026 World Cup in the United States, which only allowed for preliminary medical tests.
Ederson's Future Remains Uncertain
The Premier League club requested further medical assessments to investigate a specific issue. Following a 48-hour period of these scans, numerous sources initially indicated that Manchester United had pulled out of the deal. Outlets such as Sky Sport Italia, Fabrizio Romano, and Sportitalia reported that Manchester United had informed Atalanta they would not proceed with the transfer.
However, subsequent reports from BBC Sport, Sky Sports Deutschland, and other sources now suggest that a final decision has not yet been reached.
Italian media outlets had largely concluded that Ederson did not have any serious injury concerns, speculating instead that Manchester United had simply reconsidered their position over the past five weeks. This leaves open the possibility that Manchester United may seek to renegotiate the terms of the transfer, a proposition that Atalanta might not accept.
