According to reports, Atalanta is stepping up their efforts to sign Rodrigo Muniz, a centre forward for Fulham, and they are also scheduled to meet with Jean-Philippe Mateta, a striker for Crystal Palace. After Mateo Retegui's historic move to Al-Qadsiyah, 24-year-old Muniz is becoming the clear frontrunner to bolster the attack in Bergamo, according to Sky Sport Italia.
The Brazilian's deal only expires in June 2026, but the club has the option to extend it by another year. He scored 11 goals and provided two assists in the Premier League last season. Atalanta management may exploit the trip to England for more talks, particularly with Crystal Palace, according to a warning from Sky Sport Italia. This is because, despite the reported rejection of the €34.7 million proposal, Mateta is still considered as an alternative for the attack.
