Man United considering Serie A star & Premier League duo as alternatives to Ugarte transfer

Man United considering Serie A star & Premier League duo as alternatives to Ugarte transfer

Manchester United have reportedly stalled in talks over the potential transfer of Paris Saint-Germain midfielder Manuel Ugarte, so are looking at the likes of Atalanta star Ederson and other alternatives.

The Brazilian has impressed in his time in Serie A, as well as in last season’s Europa League as he played a part in Atalanta emerging as surprise winners of the competition.

Ederson is now being linked with Man Utd by HITC, who also report that Premier League duo Joao Gomes and Danilo, of Wolves and Nottingham Forest, respectively, also being considered.

Still, the report notes that one issue with Ederson is that Atlanta are unlikely to sell another key player this summer, with Teun Koopmeiners a top target for Juventus.

There are some other fine players out there, however, and it shouldn’t be hard to find someone who’d be quite a considerable upgrade on the ageing and under-performing Casemiro.

Ederson transfer: What else has been said about the Atalanta midfielder?

Ederson to Manchester United or Liverpool?

Ederson’s fine form has also previously seen him linked with Liverpool by Give Me Sport, while Fabrizio Romano also spoke exclusively to CaughtOffside about the Reds’ interest in the 25-year-old, which seemingly never got anywhere particularly advanced.

“Liverpool made contact with his (Ederson’s) agents weeks ago but never started any negotiation, they didn’t send a bid so far, there are no talks ongoing at this stage,” Romano said.

“We have to see if they will include Ederson in their shortlist or not, it’s really early for this and there are no meaningful changes to the situation so far. Atalanta, meanwhile, don’t want to lose both Ederson and Koopmeiners.”

Meanwhile, speaking in an interview with AS, Ederson admitted he’s curious about the possibility of playing in the Premier League.
