Marco Palestra Transfer from Atalanta to Crystal Palace
According to sources, Crystal Palace are looking at Atalanta's Marco Palestra as a potential addition, and he is currently impressing on loan at Cagliari. The 21-year-old Italian international has two caps for his country and has registered one goal and four assists in 30 Serie A appearances this season. He has attracted widespread interest, and Liverpool are also interested in signing him this summer. Newcastle United have reportedly dispatched scouts, while Arsenal, Chelsea, Manchester United, Tottenham and Bournemouth have also shown interest. In Serie A, Inter Milan have identified him as a top target, Juventus maintain a long-standing interest, and Barcelona have also added him to their shortlist. Sources suggest that Atalanta value the right-back at a minimum of €45 million and may be prompted to sell due to the high volume of interest. The club is also reportedly reluctant to sell to a domestic rival. His current Transfermarkt market value is €30.00m. Inter was reportedly considering a €35 million offer in March 2026, and reports from summer 2025 suggest the asking price was around €25 million. For the 2025/2026 season, Cagliari reportedly paid a €2 million loan fee to Atalanta.
