Zaniolo sees Atalanta move as chance to revive career under Gasperini

Nicolo Zaniolo could have a chance for revival at Atalanta under the guidance of Gian Piero Gasperini.

To date, Atalanta is akin to the United States of America, and not just because Pagliuca, in addition to achieving success with Atalanta, has led the Boston Celtics to win the NBA Finals.

Sources reveal that Atalanta has been eying Zaniolo for some time, considering his potential to be a game-changer for the team.

“Zaniolo needs a fresh start, and Atalanta could offer him that environment,” a club insider told La Gazzetta dello Sport.

Moreover, the Atalanta project, renowned for its player development and attacking style of play, is seen as the perfect fit for a player of Zaniolo’s calibre.

Club chairman, Antonio Percassi, hinted at the possibility, stating, “We are always looking for talented players who can align with our philosophy.” His remarks were reported by Corriere dello Sport.

It’s worth noting that Zaniolo’s career has been hampered by injuries and inconsistency, prompting discussions about his future.

“Joining Atalanta is an exciting prospect for Zaniolo, as he seeks to rediscover his form and fulfil his potential,” said Marco Rossi, a prominent football analyst, in an exclusive interview with Sky Sport Italia.

The player, currently with Galatasaray, has expressed his desire to return to Serie A, making the speculation even more intense.

“As a player, I always aim to improve, and the Serie A remains a crucial stage,” Zaniolo himself shared during a press conference reported by Tuttosport.

Whether this move materialises or remains mere speculation is yet to be seen, but it undeniably fuels the excitement among fans and pundits alike.
