‘We have received offers for Locatelli, but also Domenico Berardi, Giacomo Raspadori and Jeremie Boga have requests,’ the chief executive told Sky Sports Italia.
‘We will talk about Locatelli when Euro 2020 ends, we want to leave him calm until Sunday. We have received important offers for him, talks with one of which are very well underway.
‘We met with Juve and we made an appointment next week but it is all to be evaluated.
‘Today the Italian market has great difficulties, offers come from abroad, and it is clear that we have players who are hungry to play for big clubs.’
