Atalanta have expressed their interest to sign Inter youngster Sebastiano Esposito to Inter according to a report in today’s print edition of Italian daily newspaper Tuttosport.

Atalanta manager Gian Piero Gasperini is a huge fan of the 17-year-old sensation and the report explains that the clubs could do a deal similar to the one that sent Andrea Pinamonti to Genoa from Inter.

Should Esposito join Atalanta in a similar deal, it would mean Inter would have an option to buy him back in the future for a pre-determined amount.

The report from the Turin based news outlet goes on to explain that Fiorentina are also interested in the Italian youth national team player and he could well be inserted into a deal for Federico Chiesa, who is a long term target of Inter’s.

This season has been Esposito’s breakthrough season at first team level and in 11 appearances across all competitions to date, in which he has scored one goal.
