Acqua chooses Atalanta
Wednesday 24 June, 2009

Inter striker Robert Acquafresca will join Atalanta on loan next season, according to the Italian Press.

The 21-year-old has spent the last two years with Cagliari, scoring 25 goals in 68 appearances.

He returned to Inter this summer, but doesn't feature in Jose Mourinho's plans for next season.

Several clubs have tried to sign him, including Juventus, Genoa, Parma and Fulham.

However, Acquafresca is said to like the project outlined by new Atalanta Coach Angelo Gregucci, which will focus on young players.

Acquafresca is currently at the European Under-21 Championship in Sweden where he has made quite an impression.

He has scored three goals in three games and consequently helped book Italy's place in the semi-finals.
