Atletico launch move for Ederson as talks begin with Atalanta

Atlético Madrid are preparing to accelerate their pursuit of Atalanta midfielder Ederson, with Sky Sports reporting that the Spanish club have an opening offer ready. The Brazilian has already agreed personal terms on a long‑term deal, committing to a four‑year contract that reflects his rising profile in European football.

Atalanta, however, are expected to reject Atlético’s initial proposal, as it falls short of their valuation. That financial gap is set to shape negotiations in the coming weeks, with both clubs aiming to find a compromise.

Despite the expected resistance, Atlético remain determined to secure Ederson as a key part of their summer rebuild. The 25‑year‑old is viewed as a transformative addition to strengthen the midfield, and the club intend to continue talks until an agreement is reached.
