Exclusive: AC Milan impressed by €20 million Atalanta star, summer move could be made

Serie A giants AC Milan have been impressed by the performances of Atalanta star Timothy Castagne, who has played a key role in helping the club challenge for a top four finish this season.

The 23-year-old Belgian can play full-back on either sides and has also played a number ten for Atalanta this season. He has played in 26 Serie A games this season, scoring twice and assisting twice so far.

We understand that Milan have been impressed by Castagne and are now deciding to make a move for him in the upcoming summer window.

Leonardo really likes the Belgian and having followed him for the last few months has paid off for him. They are attracted to the player and the progress that he has made.

Atalanta value Castagne at about 20 million euros and had rejected an offer of 9 million euros from Celtic in January. Castagne's price has risen to an even higher amount in recent weeks, thanks to impressive performances under Giampiero Gasperini.
