Manchester United are moving fast towards completing the signing – optimistic the deal will be completed

Manchester United There are ‘intentions’ to sign Ederson from Atalanta this summer and ‘racing’ to get a deal done.

tuttomerkatoweb Manchester United are reported to be making a move for the 26-year-old Brazilian, although they have not yet made a bid.

manchester united optimism

According to the website, the ‘overall sentiment’ is optimistic about the midfielder moving to the Premier League this summer.

Manchester United’s sudden move could result in Atletico Madrid, who were the first to make an offer in January, loosening their grip on the player. They are now considering other profiles, such as Joao Gomes at Wolves.

The feeling in Spain is that Ederson would like to compete at a different level. This is despite the agreement being on individual terms.

Atalanta’s asking price is clear at the moment; They want €50 million to sell the midfielder this summer. They are determined to acquire such a ‘significant sum’ so that they can reinvest and attempt to rebuild their midfield.

Either way, Ederson appears to be a major target for Manchester United in the coming weeks. They are set to lose Casemiro, and another Brazilian could be an ideal addition.

Manchester United’s interest is increasing

Reports have certainly indicated that they are increasing their interest in the Atalanta midfielder.

Sport Witness covered a similar report on May 8thsaid That they were prepared to break the €40m wall for the midfielder. This would mean that there is not a big difference between them and Atalanta in terms of the asking price.

Manchester United was then given encouragement by Atalanta’s CEO. He emphasized that They will listen to offers if they come in this summer. However, these offers are expected to arrive sometime this summer.

There is a growing sense, at least in Italy, that Manchester United are preparing their move. And Atletico backing down has, at least for now, opened the door for them to secure a deal without any competition.

New York Giants may be close to completing Dexter Lawrence trade

The New York Giants have been working on building a roster that is capable of competing for a playoff spot in 2026 throughout the offseason. Moving on from Brian Daboll and hiring a former Super Bowl winner in John Harbaugh is a big part of that. So was Dexter Lawrence, whom Harbaugh called a “medium stone” rather than a franchise cornerstone.

Yet, in recent weeks, the Giants have apparently reached an impasse after Lawrence informed them he wanted a raise on his current four-year, $87.5 million deal, where he ranks as the 12th-highest-paid DT with an average of $21.8 million per season.

After Lawrence determined that the Giants would not back down from his salary increase request, the three-time Pro Bowl defensive tackle demanded a trade. Now, there has been some movement on that front.

According to NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport, the Giants have indeed reached a contract “impasse” with Lawrence and his agent.

“The Giants have worked with teams on a potential trade and that will continue,” Rapoport wrote. “This should come out before the draft. By the time the draft arrives, the Giants should have a full understanding of the league-wide interest in Dexter Lawrence, allowing them to make an important decision regarding him and his future.”

Several teams have likely already expressed interest in trading for Lawrence. Now that the team has come to an understanding that they will not pay Lawrence’s demands, the possibility of a trade has increased. Plus, with the 2026 NFL Draft only two weeks away, the Giants have a golden window to execute a trade and still have a chance to improve their team/fill the hole left by Lawrence.

Although many teams are in need of a better defensive tackle, there is no one who is viewed as a sure-fire first-round pick. Meanwhile, trading for Lawrence gives teams a chance to make sure they address their weakness with a proven superstar. Thus, competing teams that feel like they are just a stone’s throw away may pay special attention to Lawrence’s market.

TI gets standing ovation after completing halftime show despite Magic City promotion being canceled

Despite the NBA canceling the Magic City promotion, the crowd came to life for TI’s halftime performance during the Atlanta Hawks and Orlando Magic game.

While some NBA fans were in a somber mood after the NBA decided to cancel the Magic City promotion, the ATL icon’s performance made them forget – even if only for a few minutes. TI performed his latest single, “Let ‘Em Know”, which came out in January, which got the crowd standing, dancing and rapping along to the lyrics.

The Hawks’ primary owner, Jami Gertz, has ties to the Magic City as he was the producer of a five-part documentary that honored the club’s legacy, and how it influenced hip-hop, Black culture, and the city of Atlanta.

“After the work we did to create ‘Magic City: An American Fantasy,’ this collaboration and theme night is very meaningful to me,” Gertz said when the promotion was announced. “The iconic Atlanta institution has had such an incredible impact on our city and its unique culture.”

Some NBA fans were very happy with the infamous strip club’s partnership with the Hawks as they are both prominent parts of the culture. While some fans were excited for the collaboration, which would have started with last night’s game, NBA Commissioner Adam Silver shut down the promotion.

“When we learned of the Atlanta Hawks’ scheduled promotion, we reached out to Hawks leadership to better understand their plans and reasoning,” Silver said in a statement. “While we appreciate the team’s vision and their desire to move forward, we have heard significant concerns from a wide range of league stakeholders, including fans, partners and employees. I believe canceling this promotion is the right decision for the broader NBA community.”

While some Hawks fans were disappointed, the franchise respected the NBA’s decision.

“Although we are deeply disappointed by the NBA’s decision to cancel our Magic City Night promotion, we fully respect its decision,” the Hawks said in a statement. “As a franchise, we are committed to celebrating the best of Atlanta – with authenticity – in ways that continue to unify and bring us closer together.”

Tottenham €20 million offer revealed – route to completing transfer for Spurs explained

Niccolo Picilli
22 February 2026; Olimpico Stadium, Rome, Italy; serie a anilive football match; Rome vs. Cremonese; Tottenham target AS Roma’s Niccolo Picilli

Nicolo Picilli’s last few months at AS Roma have been impressive. The midfielder is now attracting the attention of Tottenham.

In the first campaign, the Italian Giallorossi seemed to be on the periphery of the first-team. By the end of December, he had played only three times in Serie A, but that changed after scoring two goals against Stuttgart in the Europa League.

This led to Gian Piero Gasperini making greater use of the midfielder, as Picilli started against Juventus and Genoa after scoring against Cremonese.

The 21-year-old is also in the running for a call-up to the Italian national team, which shows how far he has come in a short time this season.

Tottenham’s interest in the player is increasing asromalive Providing some key details.

tottenham team is pisili

The outlet has made it clear that Juve have been pursuing the young midfielder for some time now. He now faces stiff competition from Spurs, who are believed to have invested €20m in January.

Roma rejected the approach but Tottenham are keen on the player.

This could lead to the reigning Europa League champions offering Destiny Udogi in a potential swap for Pisili.

It is believed that if this deal goes through, it will be a ‘double insult’ for the Bianconeri. The main reason for this is that they are not only keen on Pisili, but also see Udogi as a target for the summer.

The talk of Tottenham seems exaggerated

Niccolo Picilli

While there is no doubt about Picilli’s ability in the final third as a midfielder, the reports seem exaggerated.

The main reason for this is that there is no reason for Tottenham to offer €20m for a player who was not even a regular. The Italian played more than 40 times in all competitions last season but his stock has already fallen in the current campaign.

Furthermore, Udogi’s value is probably higher than the Roma talent. A straight swap deal involving the two players would only go as a loss for Spurs, who should ideally value the left-back at more than €30m.

Taking everything into consideration, ASRomaLive’s report appears to be an attempt to promote the midfielder in the best possible light.
