Barcelona make contact for Atalanta’s Ederson

Serie A side Atalanta won the Europa League yesterday and midfielder Ederson was hugely impressive in the final. The Brazilian is already attracting attention from other clubs.

While he has been linked with a move to Tottenham in recent months, Daniele Longo has reported that other clubs also like the ex-Salernitana man. Barcelona are one club who are quite keen on the 24-year-old, who has made the midfield position his own under Gian Piero Gasperini.

Barca have, meanwhile, already spoken to the player’s entourage and they wanted to understand the Brazil international’s intentions for next season. As of now, La Dea value the player at about €45 million to €50 million and that is the cost that Atalanta had set for him even last summer, when Juventus had tried to sign the midfielder. 

The Europa League champions believe that the price is fair because Premier League clubs would easily be able to pay that amount.
