Spurs eyeing midfield maestro Ederson, a step towards progress under Postecoglou
With progress comes prosperity, opportunity, and the potential for advancement – that is the vibe at Tottenham Hotspur stadium since Ange Postecoglou took over the reins at N17. While Spurs have come a long way, there is still a long way to go and progress is the vibe around the club going into the summer transfer window.
Daniel Levy & Co. are looking for players that can not only improve the squad but also push the ceiling of the team and midfield seems to be one of the positions that Spurs will look to ameliorate this summer as they eye Atalanta midfielder Ederson.
In recent months, Ederson has been linked with a move to Manchester United, Liverpool, Juventus and Newcastle United alongside Spurs.
When Ederson was twelve, he packed his bags to move to Sao Paulo, Brazil’s biggest city, with the hope of making it as a footballer. Now at twenty-four, he has some of the best clubs in the world lining up for signatures.
To describe Ederson in a brief, he is a box-to-box midfielder who has a big engine and can make vertical line-breaking passes. There is a massive potential that can reap dividends if Tottenham were to bring him to North London.
According to a report by Calciomercato, Atalanta are asking for 35 million euros for Ederson’s services with Tottenham and Newcastle leading the race.
