Mitchel Bakker is a Dutch left-back, born on 20 June 2000 (age 26), currently with Atalanta and wearing squad number 5. His market value is around £2m, according to Transfermarkt.
His strongest league return came at Bayer Leverkusen in 2022-23, when he scored three goals in 28 appearances. For a full-back, that was a useful contribution rather than a headline act, and it remains the most productive campaign of his senior league career.
At Atalanta, Bakker has been part of a squad with serious demands on its wide players. In 2025-26, his involvement has amounted to one Serie A appearance.
Bakker’s career so far has taken him from the Netherlands into established European football, with Bayer Leverkusen and Atalanta giving him experience at a good level. He remains a left-back with a solid professional CV rather than a player whose story needs dressing up.
