Ederson's call up to Brazil's World Cup squad is likely to mean a tweak to Manchester United's plans to confirm the midfielder's arrival from Serie A outfit Atalanta. The 26-year-old was due to have his medical at the beginning of next month before his £35m switch to United was announced just before the start of pre-season training. Brazil are one of the favourites for the tournament and it would be no surprise if they were still involved right to the end on 19 July.
