Tottenham and Newcastle United have emerged as the frontrunners in the race for Atalantaโs Ederson.
According to a report by Daniele Longo, Atalanta have named a price for their defensive midfielder Ederson in recent days as Tottenham and Newcastle United are set to make a bid soon.
Juventus have joined the race for the Brazilian but sporting director Cristiano Giuntoli sees the project as a near impossible project as the Bianconeri would rather invest anywhere else than make a gigantic bid to land a player from league rivals.
La Deaโs initial asking price stands at โฌ35 million for Ederson. They will only let him negotiate personal terms when a club matches the fee otherwise there is no opportunity.ย
The 25-year-old has six goals and one assist across all competitions this season and he has established himself as one of the integral players in Gian Piero Gasperiniโs side. With significant financial resources, Newcastle United and Tottenham are expected to progress with the transfer proceedings soon as we await further updates.ย
