Schira: Milan learn how much they would have to pay for midfield target as Atalanta set price

AC Milan could land one of their midfield targets for €15million this summer with Atalanta open to selling, a journalist has claimed.

There have been several reports over the past few weeks and months pushing the hypothesis of a potential return to Milan for Pessina, who left back in 2017 as part of the deal which saw full-back Andrea Conti move the other way from Bergamo.

According to what Nicolo Schira is reporting on Twitter, Atalanta could indeed consider selling Matteo Pessina this summer, for whom they have exercised an option to extend his contract until 2024.

However, the will not be sold at the ‘balance price’ and instead, La Dea will look for around €30m with several clubs interested. For Milan, of course, this means that in theory they could land him at €15m by virtue of the 50% sell-on clause which essentially functions as a tool to cut his price in half.
