Manchester United’s well-documented struggle last season created the lowest point of Ineos’ short ownership. Of course, they weren’t there that long, so there’s still hope that Reuben Amorim can turn things around.
However, supporters were regretted by the club’s poor performance, finishing 15th in the Premier League and after losing to Tottenham Hotspur in the Europa League final, they were unable to grasp their lifeline and lost the key to next year’s Champions League.
With Matheus Cunha signed and Bryan Mbeumo from Brentford approaching his move to Old Thel Thelford, it is clear that Red Devils wants to rewrite the offensive script. However, the Rasmus Hojlund may remain on its own.
But it’s not just the frontline that United need to improve. In fact, you also need to brush up in the middle.
A man looking for a mid-game upgrade
Christian Eriksen left Manchester United at the end of his contract last month. Aging Dane had to go, but it all thinned out the central option just as well.
Well, football director Jason Wilcox is trying to fix it. After reports that United had negotiated with Douglas Luis’ Juventus, Fabrizio Romano enlightened with enrichment that the unknown Premier League outfit had taken the approach.
But United are also looking at another Serie A star that might be even more suitable.
In fact, according to the goal, the English club is comparable to Inter Milan and AC Milan for Adason of Atalanta, with all suitors making official enquiries and beginning contact with the midfielder’s aide.
The 26-year-old Adason is a talented player and attracted attention from the heavyweights of the Premier League last year. Valued at 60 million euros (£51 million), he marks a sudden spending, but it may be worth it for Man United Side to make a big comeback.
What Ederson brings to Man United
Blessed with a distinctive blend of sturdy Brazilian combat and artistic talent, Ederson is a well-balanced midfielder, turning from strength to strength over the years in Atalanta, bringing a total of 139 appearances.
United already has a tough tackle defensive midfielder at Manuel Ugarte, but Adason served as eight more when called out, while adding competition.
In fact, his silky focused defensive efforts make him the answer for United to Martin Zubimendi, who had just signed Arsenal in a deal worth £51 million.
Zubimendi is a Spanish maestro with a steely way about him, and if Amorim wants to fill the gap in his rivals, he certainly needs to be dealt with with emphasis.

While Zubimendi is probably a little more active in tackles, Adason has demonstrated his suitability for rounding over the past year, bringing it all together in a way that only enriches the level of the theatre of Dreams.
Anyway, Italian content creator Damiano Koccia even claims that Adason is “the most powerful defensive midfielder in the world.”
He may be a strong tackler, but Adason is even more. The physical player has been praised in the past by Fabio Capello for his integrity: “He is out of this world because of his ability to combine running, physicality, technique and intelligence.”
The admiration is everywhere – like Ederson. Scout Antonio Mango said South Americans are “wherever he plays.”
Evidence of this is seen in his ground-covered ability, which ranks in the top 7% of position peers on Italian top flights for ball retrieval per 90, according to FBREF.
Ball recovery is defined by the number of loose balls recovered by the player.
Change is underway in Manchester this summer, and this is exactly the signature needed to cast issues in the past in recent years, and begin a sustained progression by returning to the top level of English and European football.
