Manchester United is in the final stretch of signing Brazilian midfielder Éderson from Atalanta, with the 26-year-old currently undergoing a medical as the club works to formalize a deal that has been verbally agreed since early June 2026.
The fee sits in the range of £35 million to £38 million, with the higher end dependent on performance-related add-ons. In euro terms, that translates to roughly €40.5 million to €45 million.
How the deal came together
The verbal agreement was reached in early June, but the formal process stalled while Éderson was on international duty with Brazil at the 2026 FIFA World Cup. He underwent an initial medical assessment during that tournament, and following Brazil’s exit from the competition, he is expected to arrive in England around July 8-9 for a second, more comprehensive check with United’s medical staff.
That second medical is the last real hurdle. Everything else, the fee structure, the personal terms, the contract length, has reportedly been sorted. United is offering a deal through 2030, with an option for a further year.
