Ederson £40m deal to Man United collapse due to medical concerns
Manchester United’s proposed £40 million transfer for Atalanta midfielder Ederson has collapsed following complications during his medical examination.
Manchester United have pulled the plug on their proposed £40 million transfer for Atalanta midfielder Ederson. The highly anticipated deal collapsed late Thursday after extensive medical examinations in England raised unresolved concerns for the Premier League club.
Old Trafford officials ultimately decided to abandon the transfer due to a distinct lack of clarity surrounding the Brazilian’s physical assessments.
Meanwhile, Atalanta have firmly rejected any long-term fitness concerns regarding the 27-year-old midfield star.
The Italian club remains entirely confident in the player’s medical state and is prepared to immediately re-integrate him into their squad for the upcoming season. Ederson will now return to Italy, leaving United to pivot toward alternative midfield transfer targets.
