Charles De Ketelaere was the star of the show again for Atalanta last night in their 3-1 Coppa Italia last 16 victory against Sassuolo, and the feeling is that AC Milan are set to cash in.
With his brace and the assist in the Coppa Italia last night against Sassuolo, De Ketelaere reached six goals and five assists this season in all competitions (Serie A, Europa League and the cup) for Atalanta.
Therefore, MilanNews reports, his permanent acquisition from Milan is getting closer and closer, set at €23m. La Dea are more and more convinced of the Belgian’s qualities and the ability to show them under Gian Piero Gasperini.
The Belgian player spoke to DAZN about his season a couple of weeks ago, suggesting that he feels like he is a better fit at Atalanta after a difficult first season at Milan where he failed to score a goal and got just one assist.
BergamoNews recently revealed the real figures of De Ketelaere’s move: a paid loan costing €3m plus an option to buy set at €22m and a further €2m in bonuses, thus making a total of €27m. If he keeps going with this form, the Rossoneri will almost certainly cash in.
