Atletico Madrid will be looking for a midfielder this summer, but chances are it won't be Atalanta's Ederson dos Santos. The Brazilian has impressed in Serie A, but it seems unlikely that the Colchoneros have much hope of landing him.
The 24-year-old has become a regular in front of Gian Piero Gasperini's defence, and with sitting midfielders becoming increasingly valuable, it is no surprise that he is attracting the attention of various sides. In addition to Atlético, Tottenham Hotspur are also linked with him
However, as Matteo Moretto said Relief, Los Rojiblancos may find that Ederson is out of their budget. His information is this Atalanta he will only be willing to do business for more than 40-50 million euros, which is “out of the reach of many Spanish clubs”.
Barcelona were also linked with Ederson earlier in the season, but the Blaugrana find themselves in an even more difficult position financially than Atletico. If Ederson is on the move, it seems clear that his destination will be the Premier League, with few other sides spending those fees.
