Juventus has contacted Ederson agent

As Juventus strives to finish the season on a high note securing a crucial fourth-place finish to ensure Champions League qualification the club is already laying the groundwork for the future.

Reinforcing the squad is a top priority, and leading that charge is Football Director Cristiano Giuntoli, who is determined not to waste any time in bolstering the Bianconeri lineup.

Giuntoli’s dream signing: Ederson

According to Calciomercato, Giuntoli’s ultimate goal is to bring Ederson to Turin. The Brazilian midfielder has been a standout performer for Atalanta, dominating the center of the pitch with his skill and leadership.

Giuntoli envisions recreating the formidable Ederson-Koopmeiners duo under the shadow of the Mole Antonelliana, but securing the deal will be anything but straightforward.

There was January talks?

Back in January, Giuntoli met with Ederson’s representatives to explore the possibility of a transfer and gauge the player’s interest in joining Juventus.

However, the midfielder remains highly intrigued by the prospect of playing in the Premier League, adding complexity to any potential negotiations.

Ederson contract situation and Manchester United interest

The 24-year-old is under contract with Atalanta until June 30, 2027. While the Bergamo-based club has attempted to initiate talks for a contract renewal, the two parties remain far apart, and indications suggest that Ederson is reluctant to extend his stay with La Dea.

Juventus faces stiff competition from the Premier League, with Calciomercato.com reporting that Manchester United is preparing a €60 million offer for Ederson. This figure matches the amount Juventus recently invested in Koopmeiners and could be enough to convince Atalanta to greenlight the Brazilian’s departure to England.

With the summer transfer window approaching, Juventus must act swiftly if they hope to secure one of Serie A’s brightest midfield talents before the Premier League giants swoop in.
