El Hadji Malick Diouf could be the next big arrival in Serie A as Atalanta weighs a summer move for the dynamic Senegalese winger.
The 20-year-old, currently shining for Slavia Praha, has caught the attention of the Bergamo-based club, which is looking to strengthen the left side of its squad.
With a reported market value of €18 million according to Transfermarkt, Diouf offers tactical versatility. He has made 41 appearances, netted 7 goals, and provided 4 assists, operating as a left midfielder at Slavia and as a left-back for Senegal’s national setup.
Atalanta has made notable signings during this window, including Ivorian defender Odilon Kossounou, Ghanaian winger Kamaldeen Sulemana, and Nigerian talent Honest Ahanor. Diouf, a graduate of Académie Mawade Wade, could be their fourth key addition.
Talks between the two clubs are still in early stages, with no pressure to rush. Atalanta is carefully evaluating Diouf’s profile to ensure any deal fits their long-term vision, both technically and financially.
His next destination could depend on how the negotiations evolve in the coming weeks.
