CM EXCLUSIVE: Milan first to know if Atalanta want to sell Gomez
After an injury-plagued season with Cesena where he showed flashes of great play, the Argentine has barely been off the pitch in this campaign, scoring three times and providing two assists.
This may be enough to warrant a move to a big club. According to our information, El Papu bewitched Milan owner Silvio Berlusconi when the Orobici visited the Giuseppe Meazza.
Now, calciomercato.com can exclusively reveal that the former Catania player is in Milan’s sights, and that Adriano Galliani has made contact with Atalanta. The two clubs are on great terms, as the Bonaventura and Paletta deals prove. The Rossoneri have inquired about the price and Atalanta’s willingness to part with the 27-year-old.
The Percassi family gets on really well with Gomez, and really doesn’t want to lose him this winter. What could happen, however, is a move in summer. Milan have obtained a promise from the Orobici, namely that they will be the first to know if the club intends to sell.
El Papu is also very popular in Spain (especially with Sevilla), whilst admirers Fiorentina have called off the dogs after pursuing Gomez early on in the season.
