Éderson, born on 7 July 1999 (age 27), is a Brazilian central midfielder whose senior career has come to be shaped above all by Atalanta. There were steps before Bergamo, but his substance as a player is found in the long run there rather than in the usual transfer trail.
Atalanta have had a proper body of work from him: 141 league appearances across five seasons, with 14 goals. His most productive league campaign came in 2023–24, when he scored six times in 36 appearances – decent midfield output without needing to dress it up as something grander.
In 2026–27 he has made three Serie A appearances and scored once, along with two appearances in Conference League qualifying. Across all competitions for Atalanta this season, that leaves him on five appearances and one goal.
He has also been involved with Brazil this season, making two World Cup appearances and one in South American World Cup qualifying. His market value is around £34m, according to Transfermarkt.
The career outline is clear enough: a Brazilian midfielder now anchored by a substantial Atalanta spell, with regular club responsibility and international involvement alongside it.
