Liverpool ready to knock on the door of Euro giants to sign ‘world-class talent’ for £51m
Liverpool manager Arne Slot is looking to make additions to his midfield in the summer transfer window.
Although the Reds have Ryan Gravenberch, Dominik Szoboszlai and Alexis Mac Allister in their midfielder, Slot is keen to add more depth and quality to his squad.
While they are favourites to win the Premier League title this season, they suffered humiliation in the Champions League and the cup competitions.
The Merseyside club have identified their midfield transfer target with his club willing to sell him in the summer for the right price.
According to TuttoAtalanta, Italian club Atalanta are ready to sell Brazilian midfielder Ederson this summer.
As per the report, the Premier League leaders are ready to submit a bit of €60million (£51m) for the Serie A midfielder.
Since joining Atalanta in 2022, Ederson has firmly established himself as one of Serie A’s leading midfielders.
The 25-year-old has played 131 matches for the club, scoring 12 goals and providing 4 assists.
Italian club have started searching to replace the Liverpool target
Atalanta manager Gian Piero Gasperini has described the midfielder as a ‘world class talent’ and the Italian manager knows that it will not be easy to keep him at the club beyond the summer.
Atalanta are reportedly searching for potential replacements for Ederson, with TuttoAtalanta suggesting they are eyeing a summer transfer for Tino Anjorin.
The Atalanta midfielder is keen on testing himself in the Premier League but he is not sure about the club he wants to play for.
His performances for Atalanta in the last few seasons have been brilliant and he was a key member of their squad that won the Europa League in 2024.
Liverpool’s past experience with a Brazilian in their midfielder was highly successful.
Under the management of Jurgen Klopp, Fabinho was a key member of the starting line up at the club and helped them win the Premier League and the Champions League.
Xavi Simons is another midfielder attracting attention from Liverpool ahead of the summer transfer window.
