Arkadiusz Milik, Edin Dzeko and even Alexandre Lacazetta seemed to be Juve’s preferred No 9 targets, but Corriere dello Sport writes it has been Zapata all along.
As per the newspaper, talks between sporting director Fabio Paratici and Atalanta officials have been going on for some time.

As per the newspaper, talks between sporting director Fabio Paratici and Atalanta officials have been going on for some time.
With that in mind, Paratici has tabled a bid of €30m plus Perin, who is currently on loan at Genoa but has been linked with the Dea in the past.
Maurizio Sarri barely used Zapata at Napoli, but the 29-year-old has been a huge hit in Bergamo, scoring another 18 goals this season.
He would replace Gonzalo Higuain, who seems increasingly likely to leave the Bianconeri at the end of the season.
