Manchester United's pursuit of Ederson from Atalanta has encountered issues following a £35m agreement on June 2. Plans for Ederson to undergo a medical were altered after his late call-up to Brazil's World Cup squad. Despite Brazil's exit, medical tests reportedly indicated a problem, leading some sources to suggest the deal is off. However, both clubs have denied such claims, stating no final decision has been made. Meanwhile, United's efforts to strengthen their squad have met challenges, including failed attempts to sign other targets due to escalating fees.
