Brazilian midfielder’s arrival could mean Ugarte moves on

Summer wishlist also includes Real Madrid’s Tchouaméni

Manchester United have identified Éderson, the Atalanta midfielder, as a potential recruit to fill the gap left by Casemiro’s summer departure, with the 26-year-old Brazilian valued at €40m-50m (£35m-£45m).

United’s director of football, Jason Wilcox, is an admirer of Éderson and is monitoring the Brazil international after drawing up a list of potential replacements for Casemiro.

Defensive midfielder Manuel Ugarte has rarely featured this season and the £51m signing could be sold or loaned out in the summer.
