Man United consider Ederson signing as Casemiro prepares for farewell

Casemiro’s final appearance for Manchester United arrives this weekend, and the club are already accelerating plans to reshape their midfield. Atalanta’s Ederson has become a prominent name under consideration, with sources confirming he remains a serious target ahead of the summer window. The Brazilian is admired internally for his versatility, tactical discipline and experience in high‑level European competition. United expect a far heavier schedule next season after securing Champions League qualification, and intend to add significant depth, with as many as three midfield signings planned.

Ederson, twenty‑six, is viewed as a reliable option capable of strengthening multiple phases of play, even if he is not considered a marquee arrival. His physical intensity and composure in major matches have impressed decision‑makers. Casemiro is preparing for a likely move to Inter Miami, while Manuel Ugarte is expected to depart. United anticipate Atalanta valuing Ederson at around thirty‑five million pounds, with his contract running to 2027.
