Newcastle chief scout Nickson sees Ederson score in Atalanta victory

Newcastle United chief scout Steve Nickson was in Bergamo earlier this week.

Nickson attended Atalanta's 5-0 hammering of Frosinone.

The subject of his trip was La Dea midfielder Ederson, who scored on the night.

TMW says Newcastle see the Brazilian as a potential replacement for Bruno Guimaraes, who is attracting big club interest.

However, after sounding out Atalanta directors about Ederson's situation, Nickson was informed Ederson was not for sale this month. But he was also told things can change this summer.
