Brescianini has made 205 appearances and scored 21 goals in his career. Having joined Frosinone from AC Milan on July 7, 2023, his contract there runs until June 30, 2027. His market value is estimated at €3.50 million as of June 2024.
Atalanta’s Swift Move
Atalanta has quickly moved to capitalize on the situation, hijacking the deal and is set to sign Brescianini instead. They have recently secured the services of Giovanni Bonfanti and Aleksey Miranchuk, further strengthening their squad.
Napoli’s Transfer Challenges
Napoli’s attempts to sign David Neres from Benfica appear to continue, with the Brazilian winger expected to cost around €25 million. The collapse of the Brescianini deal and the stalled transfer of Jens Cajuste to Brentford have added to the club’s ongoing transfer challenges. The proposed deal for Cajuste involved a €1.5 million loan with an €11 million conditional obligation to buy, and now appears to be in jeopardy.
This dramatic transfer saga between Napoli, Atalanta, and the players involved showcases the unpredictable nature of football transfers.
