Jordan James was one step away from Atalanta in the early days of January. Because there was an agreement on almost everything, both from an economic point of view – 4.5 million plus bonuses – and regarding the player’s possible contract until June 30, 2028, worth about 800 thousand euros per season. But then Wayne Rooney was sacked after 15 games and the need to pick up points to secure Championship safety changed the cards on the table. Now the request is about 8 million, that is, almost double, and Atalanta considered the estimate too high. So the big risk is that if neither team changes their position, James will stay (at least until June).
