Atalanta reject Fulham's €20m bid for Raoul Bellanova

Atalanta has confirmed they will not sell wingback Raoul Bellanova after rejecting Fulham's €20 million offer. The proposal, which included bonuses, was turned down as Atalanta aims to retain Bellanova, who is viewed as integral to head coach Maurizio Sarri's plans for the upcoming season. Despite interest from Fulham and previous attempts by Everton to sign him, Atalanta is emphasizing the importance of keeping Bellanova in their squad, particularly after losing Marco Palestra. With the new season approaching, Atalanta is unlikely to consider further offers unless they are significantly improved.
