Manchester United’s coach Ruben Amorim names the only three players he really want Man United to sign for him this summer.

Manchester United appear set for a busy summer transfer window, with several changes anticipated in midfield. The club is likely to make multiple signings as they prepare for the potential exits of key players.

Christian Eriksen’s time at Old Trafford seems to be drawing to a close, with his contract expiring on June 30. He is expected to leave the club on a free transfer. Casemiro’s future is also uncertain as he approaches the final year of his deal. At 33, the Brazilian has shown signs of decline, particularly in terms of mobility, and could be tempted by a move to the Saudi Pro League. If a concrete offer comes in, United are reportedly hoping to recoup around €30 million for his departure.

Meanwhile, Kobbie Mainoo’s contract situation remains unresolved, sparking speculation over his future. Although United are unlikely to sell the talented youngster, ongoing negotiations over a new deal have yet to yield a breakthrough.

In light of these potential changes, Manchester United are looking at options to strengthen their midfield, and Atalanta’s Ederson has emerged as a key target. According to reports from Tutto Atalanta, the Red Devils are preparing to make a move for the 25-year-old Brazilian, with a potential bid of around €60 million being considered.

Ederson has impressed in Serie A this season, building a reputation as one of the league’s most effective defensive midfielders. He boasts a pass completion rate of 88 percent and has won 55 percent of his duels. On average, he records 5.1 ball recoveries per match, alongside 1.5 tackles and 1.1 interceptions. Additionally, his six goal contributions this campaign highlight his ability to contribute going forward.

Compared to Casemiro, Ederson brings a more dynamic and energetic presence to the midfield. His youth, athleticism, and tactical awareness make him a better fit for the modern game. If United are aiming to rejuvenate their midfield with players who offer longevity and versatility, Ederson certainly fits the profile.

However, any move for the Atalanta star may hinge on Casemiro’s exit, both for financial and tactical reasons. If the veteran midfielder does make the switch to Saudi Arabia, it could pave the way for United to complete the deal for Ederson and reshape their midfield for the future.
