Atalanta has escalated their pursuit of Lyon’s forward, Rayan Cherki, in recent hours, with a flurry of intense discussions taking place between the two clubs.
Manager Gian Piero Gasperini’s insistence appears to have driven the Bergamo-based club’s renewed efforts in the transfer market to secure the French attacker.
“Atalanta is keen on adding Cherki to their ranks,” a source told CalcioNews24, highlighting the ongoing negotiations.
However, it is important to note the potential interest from a direct competitor, which could complicate Atalanta’s plans.
CalcioNews24 suggests, “The discussions between Atalanta and Lyon have been intense, but there might be other clubs lurking to swoop in.”
The transfer window remains open, and it is yet to be seen how this pursuit of talent will unfold for the Serie A side.
