Ederson's current team, Atalanta, is willing to sell him for £40 million, as his contract is set to expire in June 2027.

Manchester United is also exploring options closer to home to strengthen their midfield.

Sandro Tonali, a talented player from Newcastle United, is on the club's radar.

Newcastle United is currently asking for £87 million for Tonali, whose contract runs until the summer of 2029.

According to reports, Manchester United has confidence in securing a deal for both Ederson and Tonali.

The combined cost of the two players is estimated to be around £127 million.

This amount is slightly higher than the asking price for another player, Elliot Anderson.

Given this information, Manchester United may want to move quickly to sign Ederson and Tonali before their Premier League rivals do.
