Atalanta sports chief Carlo Osti accepts they're likely to lose striker Sergio Floccari at the end of the season.
Roma are chasing the Italy international and Osti said: "Only at the end of the season will we consider any offer - and will decide with him.
"I want to stress however that no enquiries have arrived for January, but I think he will be one of the most popular players in the months ahead. It will be difficult for him to remain in Bergamo."
