Nicholas Zaniolo returns to Serie A and will do so with the Atalanta jersey. The striker, who will arrive on loan with an obligation to buy linked to appearances from Galatasaray, underwent the ritual medical checks at the La Madonnina clinic in Milan this morning, then moved to sign his contract with the Goddess and immediately make himself available to Gian Piero Gasperini, from the first day of retreat.
According to what was reconstructed yesterday by TMW, the intervention of the CEO Luca Percassi was decisive in unblocking the impasse that had arisen. The acceleration came immediately after dinner, when the number one of the Orobic club decided that he could make an economic effort that was greater than what was planned.
An effort that resulted in producing the decisive shot in favour of Atalanta, who thus added another attacker to an already rather large and varied squad: The footballer is expected to undergo medical tests already tomorrow, between late morning and early afternoon with what will become his new team. The deal will be completed with the formula of a loan (3 million euros) with a conditional obligation to buy (16 million upon reaching 65% of 45-minute appearances) plus any bonuses (up to a maximum of 3 million).
