The coaches’ waltz will quickly begin and as is often the case, the Serie A clubs are the first to get the ball rolling. On the Atalanta side, the future of Raffaele Palladino seemed to be written in dotted lines. And the management did not wait long before advancing these pawns, notably with the track leading to Maurizio Sarri.

The 67-year-old coach was coming to the end of a cycle with Lazio Rome. And according to information from Sky Italia, he should take charge of Atalanta in the coming days. There are only details left to settle but he will take over from Palladino who is therefore negotiating his departure and will have to find a new way out.
