Atalanta targets Gaetano; Cagliari considers Asllani from Inter

Atalanta is pursuing Gianluca Gaetano from Cagliari as part of their summer transfer strategy. A meeting between Atalanta and Cagliari representatives is scheduled for this evening to negotiate terms, with a current offer of €12 million trailing the €18 million asking price. If Gaetano's transfer is finalized, Cagliari will need a replacement, potentially turning to Kristjan Asllani, who is returning to Inter after loan stints at Torino and Besiktas. Cagliari is exploring loans for Asllani, ideally coupled with an option to buy.
