Charles De Ketelaere he is to all intents and purposes an Atalanta player. The confirmation came with the official note issued yesterday by the Orobic club: “Atalanta BC is pleased to communicate that the right to Charles De Ketelaere’s sporting performances is entirely owned by the Nerazzurri Club. The Percassi family, the Pagliuca family and the entire Club are are pleased with Charles’ stay at the Nerazzurri and wish him the best satisfaction – both personally and as a team – in the continuation of his sporting career in Bergamo.” The total figure has been confirmed: 22 million euros plus two bonuses plus 10% of the resale, a percentage that will be paid into the Rossoneri coffers.
Different rhythm
The Belgian managed to make a clear change after a totally disastrous first season in Italy. Author of 14 goals and 11 assists considering the 50 matches played in all competitions, De Ketelaere it was a fundamental piece in the European journey that led to the victory of the Bergamo team: shots and plays like a champion, goals like a center forward when Scamacca had some physical problems. Just enough time to adapt, then the total reversal: head raised, different attitude, football returned to the levels of what was shown in Belgium.
Connection
And now? The agreement with the number 90 is one of those goal pairs in which everything goes perfectly: with the Belgian on the right, clearly free to centralize, the Nerazzurri center forward has a greater chance of attacking the goal. Without leaving aside the assists and key passes: a whole different music, a whole different way of understanding the ball.
