Report – Inter Milan Re-Establish Contact With Atalanta Over Brazil Midfielder After Failed Pursuit Of Nigeria Star
Inter Milan and Atalanta could reportedly reopen talks for the transfer of Brazilian midfielder Ederson to San Siro.
According to Tuttosport via FCInter1908, the 26-year-old could still join the Nerazzurri toward the end of the summer.
Drawn-out negotiations over Ademola Lookman have not affected the strong relationship between the clubs.
Indeed, Atalanta and Inter have recently agreed terms for Nicola Zalewski, who will play in Bergamo next season.
Now, they could meet at the negotiating table once again.

Inter had shortlisted Ederson as a potential replacement for Hakan Calhanoglu earlier in the summer.
However, they've withdrawn from the race to sign the ex-Salernitana star in the meantime.
Indeed, with Calhanoglu failing to join Fenerbahce and Galatasaray, Inter have focused on other targets.
Moreover, Atalanta's excessive €70 million asking price has always been a considerable roadblock.
Yet, there could be a late twist to the tale.
Inter may try to test Atalanta's resolve with a €40-45 million bid for Ederson.
