🚨🔵 Inter will not improve their proposal for Marco Palestra after offering €45m plus €5m add-ons… and Chelsea to offer total package well in excess of €50m.
#CFC to offer more to Atalanta & player, Inter wait for a final answer after Palestra guaranteed priority for weeks.
🚨🔵 Chelsea are pushing to seal Marco Palestra deal already this week as Inter will NOT match #CFC proposal.
Deal depends on final approval from the player and his camp, then can get done with Atalanta for fee over €50m.
Offer to player and Atalanta, higher than Inter’s one.
First watch this season, and I was instantly moved. Only a young player with elite fundamentals can move me like that on first watch.
Jacobo Ramon is one of them. He's full package. He has it all.
#Chelsea are preparing paperworks to close Marco #Palestra’s signing in the next hours. Total agreement with #Atalanta for a transfer fee over €60M. Ready for the fullback a contract until 2033 as revealed yesterday. #transfers#CFC
Xabi Alonso chose Marco Palestra and pushing the club to sign him.
I guess that's a sign that he's driving our recruitment this summer. A lot of people have been waiting to see if it's true or just paper talk. 🤔
‼️Chelsea is set to finalize the deal 100% for Marco Palestra in the coming hours.
The negotiations are in the process of being finalized.

‼️Another player Chelsea appreciate in Italy is Jacobo Ramon.
He is a player that Chelsea are tracking. They spoke to Como because of Chalobah. So Chelsea and Como are talking. Chalobah was asked by Como, and then Chelsea asks about Jacobo Ramon.

🚨 BREAKING: Chelsea close to an agreement with Atalanta for Marco Palestra for a fee in excess of €50m.
Chelsea have also offered a significantly higher wage to Palestra.

🚨 DEAL AGREED between Chelsea and Atalanta for Palestra, waiting for final green light before 'HWG'. Inter will not up their bid or salary offer. (@FabrizioRomano)
My biggest excitement with this - besides the fact Palestra looks like a quality wing-back - is that Xabi Alonso wants the player and is getting the player. Hopefully that continues.
