Atalanta and Atlético Madrid are finalising the transfer of Matteo Ruggeri, with the deal expected to be signed on Tuesday. The Italian left-back is set to join the Spanish club on a contract reportedly worth €17m in fixed fees, with an additional €3m in potential add-ons.
Ruggeri, who plays as a left-back, has previously been linked with a move to Atlético Madrid, with reports emerging last week that the two clubs were close to agreeing on a deal worth €20m. The latest figures suggest a slight reduction in the total transfer fee.
According to the latest reports, the add-ons are considered achievable, bringing the total potential value of the transfer to €20m. Ruggeri’s signing is the culmination of negotiations that have been ongoing in recent days, with all necessary paperwork being completed ahead of the Tuesday signing.
