According to the latest reports reaching Softfootball, Atalanta are now preparing to welcome the Brazilian back for pre-season, convinced that he is fully fit and ready to play a key role in the upcoming campaign.
United had identified Éderson as one of their priority midfield targets during the transfer window, but negotiations have now come to an end, forcing the Premier League club to move on to alternative options.
Despite the collapse of the transfer, Manchester United remain determined to strengthen their midfield before the window closes. The club are still expected to complete the signing of Andrey Santos, while plans are already in place to recruit at least one additional midfielder as manager Michael Carrick continues reshaping his squad ahead of the new season.
The Red Devils have been active in the market after missing out on several midfield targets earlier this summer and remain committed to adding more quality and depth following their return to the UEFA Champions League.
For Atalanta, the outcome represents a major boost, with Éderson set to remain in Bergamo after uncertainty over his future. The Serie A side believe the Brazilian is ready to make an immediate impact and will now reintegrate him into the first-team squad as preparations for the 2026-27 season continue.
