Man United transfer news LIVE: Morgan Rogers update, Sandro Tonali truth, new Ederson agreement

Atalanta star Ederson could yet become the first signing of the Carrick era at United, though reports coming out of Italy suggesting talks are at an advanced stage are wide of the mark.

Ederson will leave Atalanta this summer and could be available for around £40million, and United do hold a firm interest in the midfielder.

United want to sign at least two midfielders this summer, and that could be extended to three if Ugarte is sold.

Elliot Anderson is top of United’s shortlist when it comes to potential midfield recruits, though it is expected rivals City will win the race for his signature. Whether Pep Guardiola’s departure changes matters remains to be seen.
