Atalanta are determined to maintain their recent high standards after qualifying for the Champions League for the second season in a row. The Bergamaschi have identified Aleksei Miranchuk as the ideal addition to the front line, they have made progress in the negotiation with Lokomotiv Moscow and the deal could be reached for around €14 million.
The only thing missing is the final agreement with the player, in addition to potentially adding Miranchuk, Atalanta are also expected to get back Ilicic which would give Gasperini numerous alternatives upfront.
