Lazar Samardzic has arrived at Milan‘s La Madonnina Clinic to undergo medical tests with Atalanta.
The Serbia international will complete a permanent €20m transfer plus €5m add-ons.
Celtic’s Matt O’Riley was Atalanta’s primary target, but after weeks of negotiations, they failed to reach an agreement with the Scottish club, so they shook hands with Udinese instead.
