Maldini is a product of the Rossoneri academy, and when the Italian talent joined Monza last year, the Serie A giants included a 50% sell-on clause in the deal.

Maldini has already reached an agreement with Atalanta, so he’s expected to undergo medical tests in the coming hours.

Maldini has scored three goals and provided three assists in 20 appearances across all competitions with Monza this season.

His move to the Gewiss Stadium means Nicolò Zaniolo will likely join Fiorentina on loan with an obligation to buy.

The Italian striker will formally return to Galatasaray before completing a transfer to the Stadio Franchi.
