Atalanta Sign De Ketelaere Permanently From AC Milan

De Ketelaere spent last season on loan at Gian Piero Gasperini's side after a difficult first season at the Rossoneri, where he failed to score in 40 appearances.

The 23-year-old Belgium international was back to his best last term as he found the back of the net 14 times and assisted 12 more as Atalanta finished fourth in Serie A and won the Europa League.

A club statement from Milan read: "AC Milan can confirm that Charles De Ketelaere has joined Atalanta BC on a permanent basis.

"The Club would like to wish Charles all the best in his personal and professional life."

The Europa League winners added in their own announcement: "Atalanta BC are pleased to announce the permanent signing of footballer Charles De Ketelaere."

De Ketelaere is with the Belgium squad at EURO 2024, where the Red Devils will face Slovakia, Ukraine and Romania in the group stages.
