Ederson locks in at Atalanta, the Premier shops in Serie A
At midday the main course is served by Atalanta, who tie Ederson down with a new deal and shut the door on Gasperini's Roma. Meanwhile the Premier League goes shopping in Italy — Muharemovic to Leeds, Manzambi a record buy at Aston Villa — while Fiorentina wrap up Oulai and Roma land Summerville's yes.
The day's main dish comes from Bergamo: Atalanta have made official the renewal of Ederson, putting an end to the talk that linked him to Gasperini's Roma. The Brazilian midfielder stays with the Dea, as confirmed by both Sky Sport and Gianluca Di Marzio, who hours earlier had the agreement on the home straight. No suitcases, then: Ederson settles back at the nerazzurri table.
But Serie A's kitchen is busy elsewhere too. Fiorentina have closed for Inao Oulai, with the medical scheduled for today, Saturday, according to Sky Sport. Udinese, for their part, have already sent Mërgim Vojvoda through his checks: a €1.3m deal paid to Como, again per Sky Sport, for a low-cost reinforcement out wide.
The Premier League, meanwhile, is helping itself straight from the Italian pantry. Tarik Muharemovic's move from Sassuolo to Leeds is official: the Bosnian defender leaves Serie A and, as Sky Sport and Corriere dello Sport point out, Juventus also pocket a slice of the deal. Aston Villa go shopping too, announcing Manzambi: for the Villans, reports Eurosport, it's the most expensive signing in their history.
On the deals nearing the finish line, Roma have secured Crysencio Summerville's yes: the Dutchman has opened the door to the move and the Giallorossi are now pushing hard with West Ham, as Sportmediaset and StadioSport report — a €45m offer, first flagged by Calciomercato.com, is on the table. A bitter mouthful, instead, for Cagliari: Andrea Belotti has failed his medical and won't be registered, says Sky Sport.
For the rest, the dining room stayed half-empty: Spain's LaLiga hasn't served anything hot yet, with the country focused on the World Cup final. The newsflash ticker slowed right down, eaten up by the World Cup: today the third-place match between France and England, tomorrow the Spain-Argentina final. The market, for once, waits for the final whistle — and we'll be back at the table for dinner. Enjoy your meal.
