请发表你的看法：切尔西对于意大利天才球员帕莱斯特拉来说是正确的选择吗？

Marco Palestra is set to join Chelsea in a whopping €60m deal from Atalanta after one full season in Serie A, but we want to know, is a move to the Premier League the right decision for the 21-year-old Italy talent at this stage of his career?

According to reports over the last 24 hours, Chelsea have agreed a deal to sign Palestra from Atalanta in a total €60m package including bonuses, at least €55m of which is guaranteed.

It is believed that Chelsea will pay Palestra a salary of €5m per season plus bonuses over a five or potentially six-year contract.

The 21-year-old, who impressed while on loan with Cagliari in his first full season at Serie A level, has had plenty of interest in the early stages of the summer, particularly from domestic double winners Inter, who are in need of a replacement for the Real Madrid-bound Denzel Dumfries.

It had also been reported that Manchester City and potentially even Arsenal were keen on the speedy right-back before Chelsea struck an agreement with Atalanta earlier this week.

So, we want to know: Is a move to join Chelsea the right call for Palestra at this stage of his career, would he have been better off at Inter, was a season under Maurizio Sarri at Atalanta ever a possibility or do you think that there was an alternative option the youngster should have pursued?
