Alberto Grassi and Marco Sportiello could both be heading out of Atalanta with a dual move to Napoli likely according to various reports in Italy.
Grassi is subject to interest from both Napoli and Fiorentina with the former having submitted a bid according to Gianluca Di Marzio. The €8.5 million offer includes bonuses which could take the deal up to €10 million but is yet to be either accepted or rejected with Atalanta waiting to see if La Viola will come to the table with an offer of their own.
The 20-year-old midfielder has quickly cemented a place in the orobici's starting eleven and has been highly impressive in his thirteen first team league appearances.
Sportiello eyed as Napoli's future No 1
Sport Italia report that the Marco Sportiello would sign for the Stadio San Paolo outfit but would be loaned back for the "forseeable future" with the club already having a very able number one in Pepe Reina.
The 23-year-old stopper has rightly gained many plaudits for his exploits and is widely viewed as a possible successor of Gianluigi Buffon's Italian number one jersey.
Sportiello has four years remaining on his current deal with the club who find themselves in mid-table, jusy six points out of the Europa League places.
Atalanta sign Djimisiti
On Monday afternoon, Atalanta announced the arrival of Albanian international Berat Djimisiti for an undisclosed fee following a succesful medical earlier in the day.
In a brief announcement posted to their website, they declared the signing from FC Zurich would wear the number 55 jersey and outlined some of his achievements in his short career which included 6 full international caps for his country.
The Swiss-born defender came through the youth setup at Zurich and made over 100 appearances in four seasons with the senior squad including some in Europe.
Fan favourite set to quit
German Dennis is reportedly ready to cut his stay in Bergamo short this mercato as many clubs circle for the 34-year-old.
L’Eco di Bergamo say Argentine duo San Lorenzo and Independiente, a club where Dennis starred at previously, are joined by Mexican side Club Tijuana in being interested.
The striker joined Atalanta five years ago from Udinese and has went on to net over half a century of goals in that time but the players agent told the same publication that "after five years, it’s time to move on."
It was widely reported that Dennis' last game for the club would be the weekend past's fixture against Inter and it appears so with his agent expected to be in Atalanta on Friday for talks with the clubs hierarchy.
