Atalanta Want To Keep Italy Starlet As Price Tag Reluctantly Set Amid Arsenal, Inter Milan & Juventus Links

Inter are among several clubs monitoring rising Italian talent Marco Palestra, but Atalanta are determined to keep control of the situation despite growing interest.

The wing-back, currently on loan at Cagliari, has emerged as one of the most promising young players in Italy.

His development has been carefully managed by Atalanta, who allowed him to gain regular first-team experience away from Bergamo.

That strategy is now paying off.

Reports from SportMediaset, via FCInterNews, highlight how Palestra is attracting strong interest both domestically and abroad ahead of the summer transfer window.

Atalanta would prefer to retain the youngster and integrate him into their long-term plans at Zingonia.

However, there is an acceptance that a major offer could test their resolve. It is suggested that bids in the region of €45–50 million may be difficult to turn down.
