Atalanta has begun working on the search for a new central manager in anticipation of the imminent departure of team captain Berat Djimsiti.

As journalist Alfredo Pedulla reports, the leading candidate for strengthening the defense of Bergamasco has become the defender of Lazio, Alessio Romagnoli..

According to Dzherel, Jimsiti asked the club to release him to Saudi Arabia, and his transfer to Al-Diriyah is already at the final stage. It appears that the Saudi club received compensation from Atalanta in the amount of close to three million euros.

In anticipation of the possible sale of the Albanian footballer, Atalanta promptly intensified negotiations before Romagnoli. Previously, the castle was close to the transition to Qatari Al-Sadd, but the city was struggling with the processing of payments.. She herself allowed the Bergamo club to join the fight for the 31-year-old Italian.

At the same time, Romagnoli is not the only option for Atalanti. The club is also interested in West Gema's central manager Jean-Clair Todibo. Sporting director Cristiano Giuntoli has been following the Frenchman for a long time, although there have been no official changes between the parties yet.

The Bergamascos are also considering the possibility of Orenda Todibo, continuing to form a new line of defense before the start of the season.
