Tuttosport newspaper reports that Atalanta’s Ederson is one of Juventus’ top targets to strengthen their midfield in the summer, with the Brazilian available for €40m.
Juventus have set their sights on Atalanta midfielder Ederson.
Ederson available for €40m
The Brazilian’s contract at the New Balance Arena runs out in June 2027, and according to Tuttosport, the midfielder is unwilling to extend it.
Therefore, Juventus have emerged as one of the interested clubs to sign the Atalanta star in the summer transfer window.
Ederson is a key Atalanta player, but he’ll enter the final year of his contract in Bergamo in July, so the Nerazzurri will release him for €40m at the end of the season.
Atletico Madrid to rival Juventus for Ederson?
According to the report, Atletico Madrid also showed interest in Ederson after signing Ademola Lookman from Atalanta in the January transfer window.
Juventus, on the other hand, signed Teun Koopmeiners for €60m less than two years ago after months of negotiations with Atalanta.
Juventus are expected to bring in midfield reinforcement in 2026-27, and Newcastle’s Sandro Tonali has also been linked with a move to Turin.
