Premier League clubs are showing strong interest in Atalanta's promising 22-year-old defender, Giorgio Scalvini. According to recent reports, several elite English clubs have set their sights on the talented center-back. The son of Atalanta's success story, Giorgio Scalvini, could replicate the trajectory of fellow Italian Gianni Ahanor.
Just one season after joining Atalanta from Genoa for around €20 million, Ahanor relocated to England on loan with Crystal Palace. Scalvini, currently under contract for less than two years, could also follow suit, but La Dea is expected to sell their prized asset for a higher sum.
Inter, Juventus, and Milan have been closely monitoring Scalvini for years, with the latter even making a formal approach last summer. However, Atalanta's asking price of €40 million in the past might discourage such interest, but wealthy Premier League clubs appear undeterred. Manchester United, Manchester City, Chelsea, Newcastle United, and Tottenham Hotspur are among the clubs showing keen interest in the Chiari native.
As Atalanta's last chance to cash in on Scalvini approaches next summer, the club is likely to do everything possible to retain the promising defender.
