Atalanta midfielder Ederson is reportedly open to joining Inter Milan during the current summer transfer window.
This according to today’s print edition of Milan-based newspaper Gazzetta dello Sport, via FCInterNews.
Inter Milan are bracing for the possibility of a departure for Hakan Calhanoglu.
If the Turkish international is to leave, then the Nerazzurri will certainly have a big gap to fill in their midfield.
Therefore, Inter are already laying out their list of targets in central areas.
There looks to be one name at the top of Inter’s list. Atalanta midfielder Ederson would be the Nerazzurri’s priority option to replace Calhanoglu.
According to the Gazzetta dello Sport, Ederson himself would be happy to join Inter.
The Brazilian would not be against the idea of staying in Serie A. It is already a league that he knows very well.
Furthermore, the Gazzetta suggest, continuing to play in the Italian top flight would provide Ederson with a showcase for new Brazil coach Carlo Ancelotti.
As such, if Inter can make a convincing offer to Atalanta, then Ederson certainly won’t turn down the move.
