Sponsored by. ATALANTA want to sign Everton striker Dominic Calvert-Lewin for their title charge. The Italian giants sent a representative to Merseyside to push for the move and attempt to sign him with a pre-contract arrangement. Calvert-Lewin’s Goodison deal runs out at the end of this season.

So Atalanta could get him tied up for next term — but even sign him now if the Toffees play ball. DCL, 27, has Newcastle waiting for him in the summer, when they plan to land him on a free transfer. But Atalanta — second in Serie A — are an interesting option for Calvert-Lewin.
They are also 13th in the Champions League and likely to play in it again next term. Newcastle can offer Calvert-Lewin a big payday if he waits. So Atalanta will have to come up with a lucrative contract AND a transfer fee to win the race right now. Atalanta have swooped up Everton's talent in the past, signing Ben Godfrey from the Toffees last summer.

Calvert-Lewin has struggled to find the back of the net in recent seasons. The 11-time England international hasn't hit double digits for goals in the Premier League since the 2020/21 season. So far this term he has scored two goals and registered one assist in 19 league appearances.
