Cagliari pushing for Atalanta midfielder Brescianini

Cagliari director Guido Angelozzi is an admirer of Atalanta’s Marco Brescianini and has been pushing to sign the midfielder since the start of December.

Cagliari are expected to be busy in the January transfer window, possibly signing one player in each department.

The Sardinian’s sporting director Angelozzi, is an admirer of Atalanta midfielder Marco Brescianini, who is facing an uncertain future in Bergamo.

Sources with a direct knowledge of the matter confirm to me that Cagliari are strongly interested in the Italian, who is regarded by Angelozzi as one of the most modern midfielders in Serie A.

The Cagliari director knows Brescianini very well, having already crossed paths with the 25-year-old at Frosinone in 2023-24. Angelozzi has been pushing for a deal for a couple of weeks, but Atalanta have yet to make a decision on the player’s future.

However, there’s a chance that Brescianini leaves Bergamo in January as two or three other Serie A clubs have already sounded out the club’s availability.

Cagliari will try to beat the competition to add another quality Italian player to their team.

Soon, there will be new updates, but now the first move belongs to Atalanta.
