In recent days, Atlético de Madrid has been pursuing Atalanta goalkeeper Juan Musso, who has also agreed to join the La Liga team. Both sides have agreed on a contract worth 3 million euros plus bonuses, however, Atalanta created an “own goal” situation.
On Saturday, Atalanta will face Torino away in Serie A, and surprisingly, Musso’s name appeared on the squad list for this match, despite him having nearly completed his transfer to Atlético de Madrid.
Musso did not get many opportunities to play in last season’s Serie A, but he almost always started in the Europa League matches and performed excellently, helping Atalanta lift the Europa League trophy. His outstanding performances in European competitions also caught the attention of La Liga giants Atlético de Madrid.
Despite being pursued by Atlético and almost certain to join, Musso still represented Atalanta in the first two key matches of the season. He started and played the full 90 minutes in the Super Cup match against Real Madrid. In the opening round of Serie A against Lecce, Musso again played the entire game.
