Atlético de Madrid previously wanted Éderson and offered 55 million euros for his transfer. Atalanta rejected the offer because they could only afford one major sale that summer, which was Koopmeiners to Juventus. Atlético de Madrid remains interested and is considered a major rival to Real Madrid for Éderson's signing.

Atletico Madrid could enter the running for Ederson if they are unable to finalize a deal for Chelsea's Conor Gallagher.

Ederson has been linked to Atletico Madrid during this transfer window. Previously, in January, Newcastle showed interest and was ready to offer 40 million, but Atalanta was not interested in listening to the proposals.

Simeone dreams of signing Ederson for Atletico Madrid's midfield. However, Atalanta has no intention of selling him this transfer window unless they receive offers over 60 million.
