Atalanta have approached Genoa to seriously explore a deal for Mateo Retegui and the Ligurian club are open to a sale this month.

La Dea are rapidly trying to find a new striker to bolster Gian Piero Gasperini’s attack following the shock injury suffered by Gianluca Scamacca, who’ll be out for at least six months after rupturing his anterior cruciate ligament.
