Ederson deal off - for now

[Getty Images] Speculation around Ederson's Manchester United transfer collapsing was swirling over the weekend after initial reports last week claimed there was a problem because of a knee injury. The 27-year-old midfielder had a full medical after initial tests in the United States had flagged an area of concern. Ederson flew to England for the required tests, which took place in the wake of Brazil's World Cup last-16 defeat by Norway . Specialists were involved and the outcome has led to United backing out. However, sources say the transfer could be resurrected later in the summer depending how the window develops for United, although the club would not be prepared to sanction any move at the previously agreed terms. While club officials say they are sympathetic to the player, they feel they have to act in the best interests of United. It is being stressed the move for Chelsea's Andrey Santos was not triggered by the issues with Ederson.
