Atalanta has shown interest in acquiring Saba Goglichidze, a Georgian defender currently playing for Empoli, due to his physical strength, versatility, and speed. However, Empoli is keen on retaining him until June, while Juventus has also expressed interest in the player. Goglichidze, who made his move to Italy just over a year ago for a fee of under 500,000 euros, has now seen his market value rise to 8 million euros. Atalanta's urgency to secure a defender has increased following a series of injuries within their defense, notably a season-ending injury to Giorgio Scalvini. Juventus, led by their sporting director Giuntoli, is acting swiftly in the transfer market, thereby exerting additional pressure on Atalanta's efforts to sign Goglichidze.
