La Gazzetta dello Sport reports that Atalanta has made significant progress for Bohdan Popov, who has been among the club's targets for weeks. According to the report, contacts between the parties are ongoing and it is felt that Atalanta wants to act before its competition to secure the player.

According to Tuttosport, Atalanta has a significant interest in Empoli's 18-year-old Ukrainian centre-forward, Bogdan Popov, who has reportedly also attracted attention from other big clubs. The Bergamo side is reported to have progressed ahead of others to secure a first option with the Tuscan club. The proposed plan, which is led by D'Amico, is to finalize an agreement in January that would see Popov remain with Empoli until June before moving to Zingonia in the summer. This arrangement reportedly has the full approval of Empoli, as they require the young player's services for the remainder of the season. Popov has 6 caps and 3 goals for the U19 team of Ukraine, and has made 5 appearances in Serie B this season. His contract with Empoli is valid until June 2028, and Transfermarkt estimates his market value to be €3.00m.
