Saudi Pro League side Al-Ahli reportedly have an agreement in place for the signing of VfB Stuttgart attacking midfielder Enzo Millot, which could steer Atletico Madrid towards the signing of Italy international Giacomo Raspadori from Napoli. 

According to reports from Fabrizio Romano, Al-Ahli have verbal agreements with both Millot and Stuttgart, despite previous links with Atleti and Premier League side Tottenham. 

What Millot deal means for Napoli, Atletico Madrid and Raspadori

As Atletico are now expected to miss out on the signing of the 23-year-old, reports indicate that their attention will revert to a different target in Raspadori. The Italy international, along with Millot and Juventus’s Nico Gonzalez, have been mentioned in recent reports as potential attacking additions for Diego Simeone’s side. 

According to updates from Calciomercato.com, Raspadori’s have recently travelled to Spain to hold discussions with Atletico Madrid.

Curiously, Raspadori is managed by TMP Soccer, the same agency as compatriot Matteo Ruggeri, who has also joined Atletico Madrid in a permanent deal this summer after well over a decade with Atalanta. 

With Millot out of the picture, Atletico are expected to push forwards with an attempt to sign Raspadori, according to Calciomercato’s report. 

Napoli, meanwhile, have no real intention to sell, but could reportedly be tempted by offers in the region of €35m.
