At this point, it appears that Jordan James will leave Birmingham City for Atalanta in the near future.
The transfer has not yet taken place, but everyone feels it is on its way, as Tutto Atalanta will provide further details on Monday.
They clarify that everything is in place between the Serie A club and the Birmingham star, as he has ‘already achieved an agreement’ on a four and a half year contract (until 2028) with a salary of €750k per year.
That sum is likely to be after tax, as that is how the Italian media reports such data, and the purchase appears to be stalled due to discussions between the two parties.
They claim that Birmingham’s player is valued at €4.5 million, and that the ‘final details between bonus and payment mechanism’ are being worked out.
However, they note that this particular scenario ‘appears to be handled,’ implying that a transfer is possible.
The 19-year-old has made 27 appearances for Birmingham in all competitions, scoring five goals, all of which have come in the Championship.
