Appears to be a difficult signing to complete this January. With Ederson pairing up with De Roon in the Midfield for Atalanta and De Roon being 34 i think, you can see why they would be reluctant to sell Ederson. Atalanta have already identified 3 players, 1 of whom they would like to sign this Jan, to ease the burden on Ederson and De Roon whom play all the games without a break.
2 of these players are Michael Folorunsho (Napoli) and Warren Bondo (Monza) Both look like they have pace and maybe we could go for one of them. Then they can become a backup once Rodri is fit. Folorunsho at 1.90m is an absolute unit but fast. Bondo is also fast and both good in the tackle and breaking up play. Fees for either are around €15m.
It was always going to be a difficult signing they know we are desperate, so are giving it the indispensable bull, he is not, do not think he started the last game. But that matters not a jot, what matters is the price, £10 million loan till the end of the season, £45 million obligation £10 million first PL and £10 million first CL. they will not get a better offer from anyone.
