Inter advances in talks for Marco Palestra from Atalanta

Inter is currently negotiating with Atalanta for Marco Palestra after a prior offer was declined. Progress has been reported following recent meetings, although a financial agreement remains pending. Both Inter and Palestra are eager to finalize the deal, with Inter expected to improve their offer closer to Atalanta's €50 million demand. Palestra has attracted interest from Chelsea and Manchester City, but his preference is for a consistent role at Inter, a club with a more stable environment. Additional negotiations are anticipated in the coming days.
