Atalanta showed interest in acquiring Pierre Kalulu before they signed Kossounou. They attempted to make a move for him but were unsuccessful. Kalulu's ability to play both as a full-back and a central defender made him a valuable target for Atalanta.

There was a mild interest from Atalanta in Kalulu.

Kalulu is a backup option for Atalanta. He was not called up for Milan's match against Torino. However, he seems closer to joining Juventus.
