Duván Zapata became one of the most sought-after forwards in Europe after the season ended. With 18 goals in Serie A and one goal in the Champions League, the Colombian caught the attention of several teams, and on different occasions he was linked to clubs such as Atlético de Madrid, Inter de Milan or Juventus.
However, the Bergamo club reported that it would let the Colombian leave for a sum close to 80 million euros, this being a very difficult figure to pay, due to the economic situation that clubs are going through worldwide.
Despite this, in Italy they assure that Zapata’s departure from the Nerazzurri club can still take place and they believe in the possibility that some club will break the market and pay the amount demanded by the set of ‘La Diosa’. With this option, the Calciomercato portal, reported that in the interior of Atalanta they already think of the forward who could replace Duván Zapata in the attack, if he comes out.
As explained by the medium, Michy Batshuayi is the footballer who is in the club’s orbit, if the ‘bull’ leaves the entity. The Belgian forward has a contract with Chelsea until 2021 and it is not in Frank Lampard’s plans for the new season, so his possible departure from the London club would be just a formality.
Thus, in Atalanta they are already analyzing the player who would replace Zapata in the attack, facing a difficult but not impossible exit. It must be remembered that the intention of the Bergamo team is to have the Colombian for the following season, and for now, his future would be with this shirt.
