Marco Carnesecchi and his recent rise
Marco Carnesecchi has established himself as one of the best goalkeepers in Serie A since establishing a foothold in the first-team squad at Atalanta. The 24-year-old had to embark on multiple loan spells away from Bergamo before landing on his feet at the Gewiss Stadium.
The Italian international has not looked back since becoming a regular for Atalanta, turning out 76 times thus far while keeping 28 clean sheets and conceding 79 goals. Meanwhile, Carnesecchi has piqued the attention of several well-known clubs with his exploits for La Dea, with Manchester United and Tottenham Hotspur vying for his signature heading into the summer transfer window.
Premier League move on the horizon?
Manchester United’s interest in Marco Carnesecchi is understandable. The Red Devils are combing the market for a goalkeeper heading into the summer transfer window due to Andre Onana’s inconsistent performances between the sticks. With recent reports linking the Cameroonian international with Saudi Pro League clubs, Carnesecchi has emerged as a viable target to replace him.
As for Tottenham Hotspur, Guglielmo Vicario faces an uncertain future at the North London club amid his links with AC Milan. The Lilywhites are concerned about the Italian goalkeeper’s form, and a summer exit may be on the cards. So, the Atalanta stopper is a viable target for Tottenham.
Meanwhile, the Serie A club will demand around €45-50 million to part ways with the 24-year-old goalkeeper in the summer transfer window. It will be interesting to see if Manchester United and Tottenham are ready to pay €45-50 million to sign Carnesecchi in the coming weeks.
