Yohan Benalouane Set to Stay at Atalanta
French-Tunisian defender Yohan Benalouane, 27, currently on loan at Atalanta, is expected to sign a five-year contract with the Italian club. Co-owned by Parma and Cesena, Benalouane will remain in Bergamo after Parma agreed to transfer him permanently to Atalanta for around €1 million.
Having played in Italy since 2010 and previously for Parma and AS Saint-Étienne, the defender is comfortable continuing his career in Serie A. Despite interest from Rubin Kazan and repeated invitations from the Tunisian national team, Benalouane has so far declined to play internationally, choosing to postpone his debut with Tunisia.
