PSV Eindhoven are ramping up their efforts to acquire El Bilal Toure from Atalanta, aiming to finalize the deal amid interest from Feyenoord and several Turkish Super Lig clubs. The Dutch club is pushing for a permanent transfer, with negotiations already underway.
Toure`s Atalanta Tenure Falls Short of Expectations
The 23-year-old Mali international`s time at Atalanta has been underwhelming, failing to justify the €30 million investment made when signing him from UD Almeria in 2023. His performance mirrors that of his loan spell at VfB Stuttgart last season, where he managed just three goals and one assist in 17 appearances across all competitions.
Toure`s struggles can be largely attributed to his injury woes, including a fractured metatarsal and a torn thigh tendon, which have significantly hampered his playing time and form.
Despite the setbacks, PSV Eindhoven appear determined to secure the young center-forward`s services. The club faces competition from Feyenoord and Turkish teams, but seems to be in pole position for Toure`s signature.
This potential move could offer Toure a fresh start and the opportunity to revitalize his career after a challenging period in Italy. For PSV, it represents a chance to acquire a talented striker with untapped potential, hoping to help him rediscover the form that once made him a highly sought-after prospect.
