Atletico Madrid Table €35m Plus €5m Bid for Atalanta’s Ederson
Atalanta are holding out for a €40m fixed fee with add-ons.
Overview
- Transfer journalist Alfredo Pedullà reports Atletico’s formal proposal totals €40m including bonuses (€35m fee plus €5m in add-ons).
- Atalanta’s stance is a minimum €40m guaranteed plus further add-ons that could take the package toward €50m, according to Football Italia.
- Sporting director Mateu Alemany has confirmed Ederson as a priority target as Atletico move early ahead of the summer window.
- Atletico’s January approach was rejected, prompting short-term interest in Rodrigo Mendoza and Obed Vargas before refocusing on Ederson.
- Ederson, a 26-year-old Brazil midfielder under contract until 2027, could test Atalanta’s leverage if renewal talks stall and Premier League clubs enter the race.
