Atalanta Nears Deal for Cagliari Midfielder Gianluca Gaetano

Atalanta are in advanced talks to sign Cagliari midfielder Gianluca Gaetano. Reports indicate the clubs have narrowed the financial gap, with offers ranging from €10‑11 million plus bonuses to a previous €17 million figure. Cagliari have set a higher asking price of around €18 million, but negotiations suggest a settlement may be reached soon.

Gaetano has expressed willingness to join the Bergamo side, viewing it as a step forward in his career and a chance to compete in European competition under manager Maurizio Sarri. The club also monitors other midfield options such as Højbjerge and Jashari as part of its broader squad overhaul.

Both clubs aim to finalize the transfer quickly, with the deal expected to be completed in the coming days.
