Tuttosport newspaper reports that Atalanta and Tottenham are among the clubs interested in ex-Juventus coach Thiago Motta, whose appointment would help the Bianconeri save €15m.
Atalanta and Tottenham are reportedly keeping an eye on ex-Juventus coach Motta for 2025-26.
According to Tuttosport newspaper, the ex-Italy international has already held talks with some European clubs after being fired by the Old Lady last month.

It is still unclear whether Atalanta and Tottenham have already contacted the former Bologna coach, but surely they are among the clubs interested in his services for next season.
Spurs are expected to part ways with Ange Postecoglou, and even if Andoni Iraola has emerged as their primary target, Motta remains on their agenda.
At the same time, Atalanta are looking for potential successors for Gian Piero Gasperini, who may leave the club at the end of the season despite having a contract to 2026.
Football Italia understands Motta will have to beat competition from other coaches, including Maurizio Sarri, who has already held talks with La Dea.
Motta remains contracted with Juventus until 2027, but the Bianconeri will save circa €15m gross if their former coach finds a new club in the summer.
