There are still some conflicting reports on the exact amount that Fiorentina will pay, as Di Marzio claims that it is an initial fee of €25m, while other outlets cite a figure closer to €30m.

What happened
Fiorentina have finalized a transfer for Atta from Serie A rivals Udinese, with the deal reportedly worth €40 million. The agreement has been described as a done deal, suggesting negotiations have concluded and the player will move to Florence. The fee represents a significant investment by Fiorentina and a major sale for Udinese, who have a strong track record of developing and selling talent. The transfer could reshape both clubs' squads ahead of the upcoming Serie A campaign.
Chance analysis
A €40m outlay for Fiorentina signals a significant squad investment and raises expectations for the player's immediate contribution. For Udinese, the sale represents a major capital influx that should fund reinvestment, consistent with their development-and-sell model. The deal alters the competitive balance between the two clubs and could impact both teams' Serie A projections, particularly Fiorentina's attacking or midfield options depending on Atta's position.
Fiorentina gain a high-value reinforcement to their squad while Udinese lose a key asset and gain significant transfer revenue to reinvest.
Fiorentina's squad strength improves with this €40m addition; expect updated Serie A projections and potential lineup changes for Fiorentina going forward.
