Atalanta are growing confident in their ability to seal a deal for Inter Milan transfer target Gianluca Scamacca.
The Nerazzurri are searching the market for a new bomber and the 24-year-old currently tops their shortlist.
But in recent hours, Atalanta have emerged as a serious threat for the Beneamata. Gian Piero Gasperini’s team is on the verge of selling Rasmus Hojlund to Man United for a whopping 84 million euros.
This will provide them with the necessary funds to launch an onslaught on Scacamma who would arrive as a replacement for the young Danish striker.
According to Italian journalist Gianluca Di Marzio via FcInterNews, Atalanta are looking to take advantage of West Ham’s haste. The Hammers are looking to find a solution for the player’s future as soon as possible.
As the source explains, La Dea’s confidence is growing. Atalanta believe they have what it takes to overtake their Lombardian neighbors and put the deal over the line.
Gianluca Scamacca Prefers To Make The Move To Inter Milan But Atalanta Remain Confident In Their Plans
For their part, Inter are only offering 24 million euros plus another 4 million as adds-on. These figures remain below the Hammer’s asking price.
Nevertheless, Scamacca has given his priority for an Inter Milan switch. The former Sassuolo man would like to play for Simone Inzaghi’s side next season.
However, if the Beneamata fail to make any progress in the negotiations with West Ham, Scamacca would also be open for a move to Bergamo.
