Liverpool Reportedly Lead Race for Atalanta Midfielder Éderson After Firm Offer
Reports cite a €30–40m price linked to his 2027 contract timeline, with Barcelona's finances weakening their pursuit.
Overview
- Multiple reports, originating with Fichajes and echoed by UK outlets, say Liverpool have submitted a firm bid and are targeting a January agreement.
- The suggested fee ranges from €30m to €40m, a figure agent André Cury has publicly floated due to the player’s contract running to 2027.
- Atalanta are described as reluctant sellers in mid-season but could consider that valuation to reinvest, according to the same reports.
- Barcelona maintain interest in the 26-year-old Brazilian, yet their ability to compete is reportedly limited by ongoing financial constraints.
- Liverpool’s push follows a summer without a midfield signing and recent injuries that have stretched Arne Slot’s options in defensive midfield.
