TNT Sports: United spearheading European clubs’ interest in EL winner who ‘shocked’ Liverpool scouts | OneFootball

Despite adding Manuel Ugarte to their ranks on deadline day last month, Manchester United remain scouring the market for potential midfield additions.

Presumably, it’s because of Casemiro’s decline over the past year, as well as the fact that Christian Eriksen is out of contract at the end of the season and is unlikely to be offered fresh terms.

It’s also been reported that emerging starlet Kobbie Mainoo, 19, is poised to feature less in the coming months amidst fears of him burning out. He featured for a total of 1,940 minutes in the Premier League last season after making his maiden start in November 2023. Then, the subsequent summer, played in all except one of England’s Euro 2024 matches throughout their journey to the final, accumulating 371 minutes worth of action in Germany.

As such, United are said to retain an interest in Ederson, having been linked with the Atalanta star on numerous occasions in the summer, though a deal never came to fruition.

TNT Sports Brasil claims the 25-year-old, who ‘shocked’ Liverpool scouts when they watched him in action last term, remains on the Red Devils’ radar, while Barcelona, Juventus and Newcastle United have also added him to their shortlist.

Ederson enjoyed a stellar end to his 2024/2025 campaign when becoming a Europa League champion in May, with Atalanta defeating European high-flyers Bayer Leverkusen – at the time ending their unprecedented unbeaten streak.
