Atalanta has been keeping a close eye on Maxim De Cuyper over the past few months and has shown interest in signing him. The club had faced Club Brugge in the Champions League previously, during which De Cuyper stood out with his performance. Atalanta is not the only club in the race to sign him; AC Milan and several Premier League teams are also competing for the Belgian international, who has six caps to his name. Club Brugge is anticipated to demand a transfer fee of over 20 million euros for the skilled left-back, highlighting his rising appeal in the transfer market.
