Atalanta nears deal with Milan for Caldara

Atalanta is looking to seal the return of Mattia Caldara to the club's ranks, working on a transfer with Milan for the return of the central defender. Negotiations are at the final stages, and could close in the next 24 hours with a base of an 18-month loan with an option to buy. Caldara's agent, Giuseppe Riso, is at Milan's headquarters to conclude the talks. The meeting was successful, and all sides are optimistic about a deal.
