After an impressive season on loan at Hellas Verona, numerous outlets have suggested that he could return to Milan, who have a 50% resale clause which means they could essentially sign him for half of what rivals would have to pay.
According to Tuttosport (via MilanNews), the Rossoneri are watching over the 23-year-old’s situation. Atalanta have not yet set a price for the midfielder but the parties will update in the coming weeks to assess the situation.
Nonetheless, a report on Calciomercato.com claims that Gian Piero Gasperini – the Atalanta head coach – wants to keep Pessina for next season as a necessary reinforcement ahead of another campaign in the Champions League.
