"As per Football Insider, Pete O'Rourke confirmed Liverpool's interest in Ederson, whom he believes would be a shrewd signing for the reigning Premier League champions. He's been linked with the Premier League for a number of years now. He's a top player, Ederson, there's no getting away from that. He's really impressed at Atalanta in Serie A, and in the Champions League and Europa League as well. He has got the ability, I think, to go to the Premier League and be a success."
"He's a physical, athletic midfielder, also good in possession as well. So I think he would tick a lot of boxes for Liverpool right now. It does look like Liverpool are in need of a bit of physicality and energy in that midfield and in the team in general so I'm sure he's somebody who's maybe on their list. But there's other clubs who are looking at him."
Liverpool intend to make significant additions in January, with midfield identified as a priority. Arne Slot has struggled to resolve midfield problems, amid concerns over Alexis Mac Allister and Florian Wirtz. One reported target is Atalanta's Brazilian midfielder Ederson dos Santos. Ederson has impressed for Atalanta in Serie A and European competitions, combining physicality, athleticism and good possession skills. Observers believe he could adapt to the Premier League and fill Liverpool's need for energy and strength in midfield. Transfer funds may be constrained by plans for a new centre-back, but Ederson would be a strong option if finances permit.
