Atalanta desperate for Lorenzo Bernasconi’s contract renewal

Atalanta are moving quickly to secure the future of rising star Lorenzo Bernasconi, with a pivotal meeting between the Serie A club and the player’s entourage scheduled to take place soon to discuss a contract renewal.

According to TMW’s Marco Conterio, La Dea are desperate to tie down the talented youngster to a long-term deal amid mounting pressure from several suitors. Both Roma and a host of unnamed foreign clubs have registered their interest in the wing-back, but Atalanta have no intention of letting him slip away. Instead, the Bergamo-based club intends to place Bernasconi at the very center of their long-term project, viewing him as a cornerstone for the team’s future.

The excitement surrounding Bernasconi has also reached the national team level. Italy manager Rino Gattuso is keeping a close eye on the player’s rapid development, considering him a serious candidate for a future call-up to the Azzurri. As Atalanta prepares to finalize the renewal details, their priority is clear. They want to fend off the competition to ensure their latest academy gem remains in Nerazzurro.
