Ederson will not be joining Manchester United this summer, and the latest reports claim that Atalanta will instead offer the Brazilian a new contract in an attempt to keep him in Bergamo.

What next for Ederson after failed Manchester United move?

Manchester United and Atalanta had shaken hands over a €45m package for Ederson, who was set to move to the Premier League after the conclusion of the 2026 World Cup.

Reports surfacing over the last few days confirm that the transfer will no longer proceed following concerns that arose during the player’s medical examination.

Ederson completed the first stage of his testing while in the United States during the World Cup. However, this did not satisfy Manchester United, who brought the player to the UK for further medical checks before deciding against proceeding with the deal.

Ederson is currently in the final year of his contract with Atalanta, which expires in the summer of 2027. According to the latest updates from Fabrizio Romano, the Italian club now intends to offer the Brazilian midfielder a new deal following the collapse of his move to Old Trafford.

Atalanta maintains that no significant fitness or medical issues affect the midfielder. The club plans to discuss the player’s future with his agents and representatives in the coming weeks.

Atalanta is reportedly prepared to welcome Ederson back into the squad. Offering a new contract could also strengthen the club’s negotiating position should the player pursue another transfer this summer or during the January window.

Ederson is currently on holiday following his participation with the Brazil squad at the World Cup.
