Manchester City are expected to push for the transfer of Atalanta midfielder Ederson as they seek a replacement for the injured Rodri in the middle of the park. The Ballon d'Or winner has shown just how important he is to this City side, and while it won't be easy to replace him, it seems Ederson is increasingly emerging as the club's first choice. Sources close to the situation have informed CaughtOffside that City are now expected to step up their efforts to win the race for Ederson.
Sources also state that the player is said to be flattered by interest from the Etihad Stadium. Can Manchester City finally sign their Rodri replacement? However, CaughtOffside understands that Atalanta are eager not to sell the player this January, especially after losing Teun Koopmeiners in the summer; this could make things tricky for City. Guardiola’s side has shown a freefall in performance during Rodri's absence, highlighting the urgency of a midfield solution.
