Atalanta got back on track after the 4-4 victory against Frosinone, with Maurizio Sarri's team returning to Zingonia for new training. The day before the match, the team had suffered a tough match at home, but now they concentrated on unloading work for the players who participated in the match, while the others carried out coordination, technique and ball possession activation exercises, closing the session with matches on a small pitch.
In the Sarri group, seven players are currently absent. Five of them, all injured, are still in the Pompeii garage: Pompei, Kolasinac, Kossounou, Kessie and Raspadori. All have received specific therapies and are following recovery programs. Hien, on the other hand, alternated sessions in the gym with individual work on the pitch. Giorgio Scalvini and Kamaldeen Sulemana participated in group work on a partial basis, indicating that they are returning to full fitness.
A point of particular attention is the situation of Raoul Bellanova, who injured his left thigh during the match against Frosinone. Tomorrow he will undergo instrumental tests to determine the nature and duration of the injury. It will therefore be possible to evaluate whether Bellanova will be able to return to the field in the coming weeks or whether he will have to extend his recovery period.
Despite the absences, Atalanta continues to work to maintain the physical form and cohesion of the group. Sarri underlined the importance of a gradual approach to the recovery of injured players, in order to avoid rebounds. With the team back on the field, the goal is to prepare as best as possible for the next challenges in Serie A, where the competition is becoming increasingly tight.
