The Italian club Atalanta defender Giorgio Scalvini will not move to Newcastle. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.
Journalist Sebastien Vidal reported this. According to the source, Atalanta is not ready to sell their defender, as the club considers it difficult to find a replacement.
Therefore, negotiations between the two clubs will not continue. Previously, Scalvini was indicated as a key target for Newcastle in the summer transfer window.
Last season, the 21-year-old player appeared in eight matches but did not stand out with a goal or assist. He missed a lot of time due to injuries to his knee and shoulder.
As a result, his return to the field has been delayed, and his playing time has been limited. Giorgio Scalvini's retention at the club is seen as a decision aimed at strengthening Atalanta's defense.
At the same time, Newcastle will be forced to look for other attacking or defensive options. Negotiations between players and clubs often become complicated, and the interests of both sides are taken into account.
For now, Scalvini's transfer will not take place, indicating a disagreement between Atalanta and Newcastle.
