Éderson reveals Manchester United transfer ‘almost done’ | OneFootball

Éderson Silva says that his move to Manchester United from Atalanta is “almost done”.

The Red Devils have reportedly agreed a deal to sign the 26-year-old for a £34 million (€40.5m) transfer plus £3.8 million (€4.5m) in potential bonuses.

Éderson is said to have agreed personal terms on a four-year contract with the option of an additional year.

Atalanta manager Raffaele Palladino last month confirmed that the midfielder will be leaving the club in the summer transfer window.

“It was a choice agreed with the player because there is something happening on the transfer market,” he said. “The fact that a player like him is being followed by such an important club should be a source of pride.”

Éderson, who will replace the departing Casemiro in the Manchester United team, will be Michael Carrick’s first signing since being named permanent head coach following his impressive stint as interim boss last season. He registered 13 goals and four assists in 138 Serie A appearances over the past four seasons.
