La Dea\u2019s recruitment has turned to the Premier League, where Rodrigo Muniz has emerged as a primary target despite earlier suggestions of interest in Crystal Palace striker Jean-Philippe Mateta.<\/p>\n<p>According to reports from Sky Sport Italia late on Tuesday evening, Atalanta have submitted an offer of \u20ac35m plus up to \u20ac5m in bonuses in an attempt to lure the Brazilian away from Craven Cottage.
