David Ornstein of The Athletic has claimed that Manchester United are in advanced talks to sign Aston Villa midfielder Youri Tielemans.
It has been said that work is ongoing to finalise a deal to bring the Belgian to Old Trafford with the 29-year-old "keen" on a move.
The move for Ederson is "off for now", he says, and one that could be revisited. Tielemans is into the final 18 months of his current deal at Villa Park and the change in tact is seen as a move after they abandoned signing the Atalanta midfielder.
It makes for an unsettling period for the Europa League holders with the same outlet reporting that Unai Emery wanted to build his midfield around Tielemans, Boubacar Kamara and Amadou Onana. The latter since suffering a serious knee injury.
