Parma Close to Signing El Bilal Touré After Player's Approval

Parma is close to signing Mali forward El Bilal Touré from Atalanta, with negotiations between the two parties entering an advanced stage, as the club seeks to strengthen its attacking line ahead of the new season.

Italian reports indicate that the player has given his approval for a transfer to Parma, providing a strong boost to the negotiations.

According to sources, Atalanta has excluded Touré from their squad for the friendly match against Feyenoord, a move that has intensified speculation about his imminent departure, especially with serious interest from Parma, alongside previous interest from Olympique Marseille.

The Mali forward returns to Atalanta this summer after his loan spell at Beşiktaş, but he does not seem to be part of the plans for the new season, prompting the club to seek a suitable exit for him during the current transfer window. Parma is currently the closest destination after the player has given his approval.

Despite significant progress in negotiations, no final agreement has been reached or the deal officially announced yet, as some details between the clubs are still under discussion.

However, current data indicates that El Bilal Touré's transfer to Parma is closer than ever.
