Inter are without Denzel Dumfries, who is going to Real Madrid, and his replacement should be an Atalanta player.
Apparently the deal is done, only the details remain - Marko Palestra will wear the black and blue jersey of the Milan giants.
The 21-year-old right-back, a member of the Italian national team, spent last season on loan at Cagliari. His performances for the Sardinian team earned him the award for best defender in Serie A.
Inter will pay Atalanta around 50 million euros for Palestra (45 plus five through bonuses), Manchester City and Chelsea reportedly offered more, but the player's motive to stay in Italian football was decisive.
