CM: De Ketelaere increasingly likely to accept Atalanta move – the latest

Charles De Ketelaere has an offer from Atalanta on the table and must decide whether to join the Bergamo side or not. In fact, his consent is the only thing missing for the deal to materialise. 

As reported by Calciomercato.com, Milan and Atalanta already have an agreement for a €3m paid loan, a €23m buy-out and a 10% future resale clause. The Bergamo side will also cover the Belgian’s entire salary during the loan.

Only De Ketelaere’s yes is missing for the move to materialise. The attacking midfielder and his encourage have held new talks with Atalanta in the last few hours and he’s now increasingly likely to accept the move. Furthermore, the late approaches of Real Sociedad and Fulham haven’t led to anything concrete.

For the 22-year-old, it will be a great opportunity for redemption as Atalanta can guarantee him playing time this season. This is something that Milan cannot provide, given the switch to a 4-3-3 formation and the arrival of several players this summer.
