Gian Piero Gasperini has recently found himself at the center of several conflicts at Atalanta, and the coach has announced he will be leaving “La Dea.” However, he has not specified when this will occur, though recent press reports provide a hint.
According to Corriere dello Sport, Gasperini has already agreed to a three-year contract with Roma, set to begin at the end of this season. It remains unclear how his departure from Atalanta will be handled, given there is still just over a year left on his contract with the club. While the coach has not confirmed the rumors directly, he has spoken positively about them.
Quote: “Everyone would like to be the coach of Roma. It’s a club just like the Italian national team. We’re talking about an extraordinary atmosphere with amazing fans. I’m proud that my name is associated with this club.”
In related news, it has been reported that Ademola Lookman is seeking to leave Atalanta due to a conflict with Gasperini.
