Italian full-back Raoul Bellanova returned to Atalanta, the Italian Serie A club announced Friday.
The former Torino player's contract length was not disclosed in the club's statement.
A product of AC Milan youth academy, Bellanova previously joined Atalanta twice, both on loan spells, in 2020 and 2021.
He helped Inter Milan bag the Italian Cup and Italian Super Cup trophies in 2023.
Atalanta announce transfer with 'Yusuf Dikec pose'
Atalanta announced the transfer of Bellanova on the social media platform X with a photo of the Italian player posing as Turkish shooter Yusuf Dikec. "You have a fan here," the club said.
Dikec helped secure a silver medal for Türkiye in the 10m mixed team air pistol event at the Paris 2024 Olympics.
His casual style, shooting with one hand in his pocket and without additional gear, has inspired athletes to celebrate their victories with the "Yusuf Dikec pose."
