Inter Milan is close to reaching a final agreement with Atalanta to sign the young player Marco Ballistra during the summer transfer window, following a new meeting between the two clubs, according to Sky Sport Italia.

The source explained that negotiations between Inter and Atalanta saw significant progress during a meeting on Thursday morning, with the deal nearing completion, while discussions continue over some financial details such as bonuses and the resale percentage in favor of Atalanta.

The report indicated that both parties aim to finalize the agreement by the end of next week, with the clubs having similar views on the terms of the deal.
