Gasperini departure still possible after latest Atalanta meeting, Tudor links

Gasperini was briefly linked with a move to take over from Claudio Ranieri as head coach of Roma, but the Giallorossi boss ruled out the possibility of an approach.

Still, Gasperini’s future with Atalanta remains uncertain, despite a meeting with the club’s senior management on Tuesday. 

‘Concrete possibility’ Gasperini leaves Atalanta 

The club owners, CEO and sporting director were all in attendance for Tuesday’s round of talks with the coach. 

While recent reports claim that Atalanta are prepared to offer Gasperini a 12-month extension to his deal, which would see him through until 2027, there are now suggestions that he is leaning towards a farewell. 

According to reports from Sky Sport Italia and others, there is now a ‘concrete possibility’ that Gasperini leaves Atalanta. 

According to Tuesday’s updates, there was no discussion regarding the team, budget or signings. Instead, the parties involved discussed the motivations behind a possible stay and a possible departure. 

Meanwhile, reports from various outlets and journalists, including Alfredo Pedulla , suggest that Igor Tudor is among the potential candidates to take over at Atalanta in the event that Gasperini leaves. 

There has also been mention of the currently-available Roberto Mancini and Maurizio Sarri, who has also been linked with Milan and a return to Lazio.
