Ederson pushing hard for United move
Ederson only wants Manchester United and is refusing to talk to other clubs, Fabrizio Romano reports. That's brutal news for Atalanta fans. The Brazilian midfielder is a cornerstone of your midfield, and United are apparently preparing a €150m double swoop for him and Sandro Tonali (1) (2). At this point, it's not a question of if United want him. It's whether Atalanta can hold the line or if Ederson forces his way out.
Sarri deal nearly done
Maurizio Sarri is in advanced talks to become your new manager. The former Lazio and Juventus boss would bring a drastically different style, possession-heavy and structured. Reports from the Netherlands even link Ajax midfielder Kenneth Taylor to Atalanta as a potential Sarri target, along with Lazio forward Tijjani Noslin (3). A Sarri appointment signals a clear tactical reset after the Palladino era.
Front office shakeup brewing
Sporting director D'Amico is the frontrunner to take the same role at Roma. Losing him would sting. D'Amico has been central to Atalanta's recruitment machine, the system that keeps punching above its weight while selling stars. Roma are pushing hard, and this one looks serious (4).
