Several sources have claimed that Giuntoli is the leading candidate to replace Tony D’Amico in 2026-27, but according to Moretto, the agreement between Giuntoli and La Dea is already finalised.
The Italian transfer expert reports that the two parties have finalised all the details and the agreement will be confirmed with an official statement in the coming days.
Giuntoli’s appointment means Atalanta’s sporting director, Tony D’Amico, will leave the club after four years.
D’Amico has been linked with Milan and Roma.
The Rossoneri were already interested in the 46-year-old last summer before ultimately appointing Igli Tare.
Recent reports have claimed that the Italian director remains on Milan’s agenda as Tare’s future at San Siro is uncertain.
Roma, however, are another possible destination, given that Gian Piero Gasperini has gained more power following Claudio Ranieri’s departure, which will also lead to Frederic Massara’s exit.
