Matteo Palma, a promising young defender, is attracting significant attention from Bundesliga clubs, with a potential transfer in the region of €30 million to €35 million anticipated next summer. RB Leipzig and Borussia Dortmund have reportedly expressed interest in the Udinese Calcio centre-back.
Palma, born in Berlin, began his youth career at Hertha BSC before joining Udinese in 2022. After gaining valuable experience on loan at Sampdoria Genoa, he has established himself as a regular starter for Udine, who are currently at the bottom of Serie A.
His recent decision to switch his international football allegiance from Germany to Italy has also garnered attention. Palma had previously played for Germany's U16 and U17 teams, but has now committed to the Italian national team, a move that will tie him to Italy if he plays for them.
While Palma's contract with Udinese extends until 2031, clubs are reportedly prepared to make a move at the close of the current season. Other Serie A clubs and teams from England are also said to be monitoring the situation.
