The first round of Serie A matches will see Atalanta play as visitors against Lecce. In the squad list announced before the match, neither Kuipers-Minas nor Lukehman were included, both of whom have recently been involved in transfer speculation.
According to Sky Sport Italia, Lukehman himself requested not to participate in this game, stating that he has received an offer from Paris Saint-Germain, although Atalanta does not seem to have received any related information yet.
The defending Europa League champions are now facing a crisis, with multiple players injured, and last season’s key players, Kuipers-Minas and Lukehman, determined to leave, which could present Gasperini with the challenge of having no forwards available.
Please note that the names “Kuipers-Minas” and “Gasperini” are used here, but it seems there might be a mix-up with the original names provided. The correct names should likely be “Kuipers-Minas” (a possible misunderstanding for Coopmeiners) and “Gasperini” (correct name for the coach Gian Piero Gasperini). If these are not the intended names, please provide the correct ones for an accurate translation.
