Bellanova Targeted by Premier League Clubs Amid Atalanta Exit
Italian international Raoul Bellanova is anticipated to leave Atalanta, drawing considerable interest from several Premier League clubs: Tottenham Hotspur, Everton, Nottingham Forest, and Fulham.
The 26-year-old winger, who primarily operates on the right flank but is capable of playing on the left, is reportedly not in the plans of new coach Maurizio Sarri. This suggests a potential summer departure from Bergamo.
Premier League Interest in Bellanova
According to reports from Tuttomercatoweb, Bellanova's most probable next destination is the Premier League, where significant interest has surfaced.
Tottenham Hotspur, under the expected management of Roberto De Zerbi, along with Nottingham Forest and Fulham, had previously been linked with a move for Bellanova. Now, Everton has intensified their pursuit, inquiring about the player's availability.
Atalanta acquired Bellanova from Torino for €24.3 million plus add-ons in the summer of 2024. His previous clubs include notable Italian sides such as Milan, Cagliari, and Inter.
Last season, Bellanova featured in 36 competitive matches for Atalanta, providing two assists. However, he did experience some challenges with muscular injuries.
He has earned six senior caps for the Italian national team since his debut in March 2024.
