On January 10th, China time, the transfer clouds are once again making huge waves. According to transfer authority Fabrizio Romano, Premier League giants Manchester United are showing strong interest in Serie A Atalanta midfielder Edison Silva, a news that instantly turned the winter transfer window upside down.
Edson Silva, the young midfielder who is rapidly emerging in the Italian game, has won numerous accolades for his exquisite skills and keen insight into the game. He is regarded as one of the most eye-catching midfielders currently performing in Serie A. Whether it is ball control, passing or defense, he has shown strength far beyond his age. It is this performance that has attracted the attention of many European giants, of which Manchester United is just one.
Discussing Manchester United's pursuit of Ederson Silva, Romano revealed that Premier League rivals Tottenham Hotspur took a keen interest in the Brazilian midfielder as early as a year ago. But with the passage of time, Manchester United gradually became the most likely next stop for Ederson Silva. Romano also revealed that apart from Manchester United, Manchester City have also sent scouts to secretly observe Ederson Silva's athletic status. This fully proves that Ederson Silva's potential has been widely recognized by Europe's top clubs.
For Atlanta, the departure of Ederson Silva is undoubtedly a big loss. However, they may find it difficult to keep the talented youngster in the face of the attraction of the Premier League giants. If Manchester United can successfully bring Ederson Silva into their ranks, it will undoubtedly inject a brand new energy and creativity into the midfield of the team.
