QUICK AND RESPONSE – In recent weeks, while confirming the desire to redeem De Ketelaere and make him a fixed point for Atalanta for the seasons to come, the Bergamo club had leaked its intention to open negotiations with Milan to try to obtain a discount. Solution returned to the sender by the Rossoneri club, which is confident of collecting the 24 million agreed upon at the time to also record a capital gain, given that the impact on the budget of the former Bruges player is currently around a figure slightly lower than 20 million euros. According to what has been learned from calciomercato.com, in the last few hours there has been a rapprochement between the parties, with Milan willing to partially meet the Atalanta management regarding, above all, the percentage on a future resale.
THE PERCENTAGE – Contacts between the two clubs are continuous and it cannot be ruled out that the elimination of this 10% quota could lead to the long-awaited white smoke. If an agreement is reached, Charles de Ketelaere – who closed his first season at the Dea with a haul of 14 goals and 11 assists in all competitions and the victory of the Europa League – will extend his contract and see his current salary increase of 2.2 million net to 2.5.
