Atalanta CEO Umberto Marino discussed Inter transfer target Dejan Kulusevski in an interview with Italian broadcaster DAZN today, when Atalanta hosted AC Milan at the Gewiss Stadium.

“I think we must be very happy with Dejan’s evolution and growth, he is one of the products of our youth system. He’s growing a lot, we have to leave him calm because he can still grow and have an amazing career. I hope in Italy.”

The 19-year-old Swedish midfielder has impressed massively whilst on loan with fellow Italian side Parma this season. Despite only making three first team appearances for the Bergamo based club last season, this season Kulusevski has made 18 appearances for Parma across all competitions, scoring four goals and providing six assists.

He is a vital player to the Emilian club and they are hoping to retain his services until the end of the season, rather than losing him in the upcoming January transfer window.
