Atalanta is reportedly keeping a close eye on Lyon’s young forward, Rayan Cherki, although interest from the Bundesliga is said to be heating up.
According to information gathered by CalcioNews24, the Italian club remains keen on Cherki.
However, Bayer Leverkusen, among other Bundesliga teams, is believed to have made significant advances in recent hours.
This could set up a head-to-head battle in the upcoming January transfer window.
A source close to the situation said, “Cherki is asking for the right opportunities, and the Bundesliga presents an interesting challenge for the young talent.”
It remains to be seen how this potential bidding war will play out, but Atalanta is likely to face stiff competition in their pursuit of the promising attacker.
