Manchester United agreed a £35 million deal with Atalanta for Ederson, making the midfielder the first signing of Michael Carrick’s permanent reign. The 26-year-old is expected to sign a four-year contract with an option for another season.

The deal still needs a medical and should be completed before United return for pre-season in July. Carrick wants several midfield additions after Casemiro’s exit, with Mateus Fernandes and Elliot Anderson also on the radar.

Felix Nmecha remains part of Borussia Dortmund’s plans, but Premier League interest continues to build around the midfielder. Manchester United, Manchester City and Newcastle United are reportedly still in contact with his representatives before the summer window.

Dortmund say Nmecha should stay, yet their Champions League revenue shortfall could make a huge offer difficult to reject. His release clause does not activate until 2027, so any early move would need a major fee.

Georginio Wijnaldum will leave Al-Ettifaq after the Saudi Pro League club agreed to terminate his contract. The former Liverpool midfielder is now set to become a free agent before the summer window opens.

Al-Ettifaq are refreshing overseas squad slots and reducing financial pressure, making Wijnaldum one of the high-profile exits. His consistent Saudi spell should still attract interest from clubs wanting experience and midfield leadership.
