Atalanta accelerates for Noa Lang as €25‑30m price tag looms
Atalanta is accelerating its pursuit of Napoli winger Noa Lang, aiming to finalise the transfer within hours and with a reported total fee between 25 and 30 million euros, according to the latest report.
The Bergamo‑based club, often called la Dea, has been struggling for goals this season. While Kacper Zalewski is adapting on the right flank, Andrea Raspadori has failed to provide consistent impact, limiting Atalanta’s offensive options.
The newspaper highlighted the issue, stating: "Goals come from the trident, always Atalanta’s strong point. Zalewski is adapting on the right, Raspadori has struggled for a while. Not having alternatives limits scoring. For this reason, Atalanta is accelerating for Noa Lang, the Napoli offensive wing, now at the top of the wish list."
Other suitors lose ground
Earlier interest from Ajax and Galatasaray has faded, with both clubs now further down the list of potential destinations for the Dutch international. The report notes that the main obstacle remains the contractual formula rather than competing offers.
Financial and contractual hurdles
The deal could be built around a total figure of 25‑30 million euros. The core dispute concerns the transformation of a buy‑back right requested by the Percassi family into an obligation preferred by Aurelio De Laurentiis. The Percassi would like a resale clause, while De Laurentiis pushes for a mandatory purchase clause.
According to the source, the distance between the clubs has narrowed significantly in the last few hours, as indicated by the phrase “ultime ore”. The Stampa tag in the original snippet, marked with the symbols A− and A+, underscores the urgency of the negotiations.
With the financial range disclosed and the contractual deadlock easing, Atalanta appears increasingly close to securing Noa Lang, bringing the winger’s potential move to Napoli nearer to completion.
