Atalanta is unrestrained in the market: new coup, talented youngster will sign for 14 million
Atalanta senza freni, colpo da 14 milioni: rinforzo da Champions per Gasp – Serieanews
Atalanta seems to have taken a back seat as far as the Scudetto fight is concerned. The orobici lost their direct clash with Napoli and plunged to -7 from the partenopei. A bad blow for the Nerazzurri’s dreams even though Gasperini, from the beginning, kept everyone’s feet on the ground: the title was not a goal within the Dea’s reach, especially against Inter, a better-equipped team.
However, Atalanta was ready to take advantage of this should the opportunity arise. It has struggled so far, it is still in the lofty positions in the standings, but it is probably better at the moment to aim at reconfirming itself in the top four of the standings in order to play in the Champions League next season.
In this edition, however, a benevolent draw for the Nerazzurri, who will take on Club Brugge in a derby regarding the color aspect of the jerseys. In Serie A, however, they will challenge Torino in the next round of the championship. If the team, fresh from the prestigious draw against Barcelona, is working on the field, the management is working to further strengthen the squad.

Gasperini lost Lookman right on the eve of the Barcelona match: a problem that will keep the Nigerian off the field for at least a month. At the same time, Nicolò Zaniolo, who did not enchant in Bergamo in the first part of the season, is now at the exit door. The former midfielder still owned by Galatasaray will move to Fiorentina, which will take on the same terms of the agreement made by the Nerazzurri with the Istanbul club.

And so, with Lookman injured and Zaniolo on his way out, despite a numerically complete offensive department, have prompted the Orobici to swoop into the market in order to further strengthen the squad. And so agreement reached with one of the most talented Italian players, Daniel Maldini.
The son of art moves from last-place Monza to third-place Atalanta, in an ideal environment for youngsters who need to grow up to show their talent for good. The agreement between the two clubs has already been reached: he will go to Bergamo in exchange for 14 million euros, seven of which will end up in Milan’s coffers considering how the Rossoneri club held 50 percent on the future resale of the player.
At Atalanta, on the other hand, Maldini will sign a 1.1 million-a-season contract that he will sign after passing medical examinations. It is not excluded that he could already be available and summoned ahead of the match against Torino.
