Paris Saint-Germain 'plotting move for Salernitana midfielder Ederson'

Paris Saint-Germain are reportedly eyeing a summer swoop for Salernitana midfield prospect Ederson.

The 22-year-old arrived at the Serie A outfit from Corinthians in the summer transfer window and has already made seven appearances for his new club in the Italian top flight.

Ederson has five Serie A starts under his belt since his mid-season move, and his contract with Salernitana is not due to expire until the end of the 2025-26 season.

However, according to La Gazzetta dello Sport - via Foot Mercato - PSG sporting director Leonardo has identified Ederson as an ideal target, but he will not arrive on the cheap.

Salernitana paid just £5.85m to bring the midfielder to the club in January, but the report adds that PSG could be forced to stump up as much as £21.6m to secure his signature.

A former prospect of Cruzeiro and Fortaleza, Ederson made one appearance for Brazil's Under-20 side in a 2-2 draw with Chile back in October 2018.
