Medical concerns derail Old Trafford switch
Ederson had been on the verge of joining Manchester United for a reported £35m fee, with an agreement struck on 2 June. However, the transfer hit a major snag when a medical, initially postponed due to his surprise call-up to Brazil's World Cup squad, unearthed an area of concern.
After initial tests in the United States flagged the issue during the tournament, Ederson flew to England for further examinations following Brazil's last-16 elimination by Norway. Specialists were involved, and the outcome prompted United to back out of the deal.
Ederson commits to Atalanta
With the move off, the 27-year-old has signed a contract extension with Atalanta, the Serie A side that brought him to European prominence. The length of the new deal remains undisclosed.
While there had been tentative suggestions that the United transfer could be revived under different terms, the Brazilian has instead opted to secure his immediate future in Bergamo.
United have since moved on, strengthening their midfield by recruiting Youri Tielemans from Aston Villa and Andrey Santos from Chelsea, alongside goalkeeper Karl Darlow from Leeds United.
