Atalanta is looking to sign Everton defender Ben Godfrey, but their offer may not be enough. According to reports from Gianluca di Marzio, the Italian club sees Godfrey as a defensive target, which has been confirmed by The Athletic in England. The Italian club offered £8 million for the versatile Englishman, who can play at center-back or right-back.
However, Everton believes that the offer is below Godfrey’s market value and values him at around €17 million. Another unnamed club has also shown interest in the defender, further complicating Atalanta’s pursuit. If Atalanta wants to secure Godfrey’s services, they will need to match the valuation set by Everton.
Godfrey was acquired by Everton from Norwich City for a higher fee and has since established himself as a regular fixture in the squad. Despite having made only 16 appearances in the 2023/24 season, Godfrey remains an important player for the club. His versatility and defensive abilities have garnered attention from several clubs, making Atalanta’s bid a challenge to navigate.
Atalanta must now decide whether to increase their offer or walk away from the deal altogether. It remains to be seen if their interest in Godfrey will remain strong enough to match Everton’s valuation of him.
In summary, Atalanta wants to sign Ben Godfrey but their offer appears lower than expected. The Italian club values him at around €17 million while another unnamed club has also shown interest in him further complicating things for Atalanta.
