Transfer rumour salaries: Federico Chiesa, Alessio Romagnoli and Pierre-Emile Højbjerg

Latest reported salary figures for players linked with a move to the club.

Atalanta plans not to offer Federico Chiesa less than 6 million euros, though his current salary of 5 million euros plus bonuses, or approximately 7.5 million euros annually, is considered too high for the club's budget. Alessio Romagnoli does not intend to go below three million euros net per season in his wage demands for a potential move to Atalanta. Pierre-Emile Højbjerg's salary of approximately six million euros is considered a significant hurdle for Atalanta.
