In a sudden twist, Atalanta are trying to sign Cagliari midfielder Nahitan Nandez, with Sam Lammers going the other way, leaving behind Inter and Tottenham, but also upsetting Verona and Genoa.

Uruguay international Nandez has been one of the soap operas of the summer in Italy, as he has been training separately and even refused to join the squad for a pre-season friendly.

He maintains that Cagliari promised a transfer to Inter, but the Nerazzurri were never able to agree a fee and in the end went for different objectives.

Nandez had begun to consider a potential Tottenham switch, but they too have turned elsewhere.

Now Sky Sport Italia insist Atalanta have dived in with a proposal to sign Nandez with striker Lammers going to Sardinia on loan as part of the deal.

This is another surprise, because Lammers had until today been torn between proposals from Hellas Verona and Genoa.

Now Cagliari can give the Dutch forward a completely different scenario to consider.
