Ederson, the Brazilian midfielder who has spent the last several seasons anchoring Atalanta’s midfield in Serie A, confirmed that his transfer to Manchester United is nearly complete. The deal is valued at £34 million (€40.5 million) plus up to £3.8 million (€4.5 million) in performance-related add-ons.
The deal structure and what Ederson brings
Ederson has agreed to personal terms on a four-year contract that includes an option for an extension. The “almost done” confirmation came directly from Ederson himself, as of June 20, 2026.
At Atalanta, he operated in a system under Gian Piero Gasperini that demanded relentless energy, tactical intelligence, and the ability to contribute in both phases of play.
The add-ons, worth up to £3.8 million, likely tie to appearance thresholds, Champions League qualification, or individual performance milestones.
