The Goddess project was put on hold due to a series of injuries affecting ten key players. The situation is so critical that the management, the Percassi family and the coach Maurizio Sarri have recognized the need to reconsider their assessments on the future of the team.
Injured players include Gianluca Gaetano and Thomas Kristensen, whose problems could last more than a few hours. Others among the injured were Giorgio Scalvini, who still showed good tactical intelligence but was forced to stop, and Thomas Pompei, who suffered damage to his finger. Sead Kolasinac, Franck Kessie, Raoul Bellanova, Gianluca Scamacca and Isak Hien also suffered injuries, making the list of absences particularly worrying.
These injuries had an immediate impact on Atalanta's ability to compete. Although the team still has the possibility of playing the match against Parma on Monday, the emergency situation is evident. Coach Sarri, who has tried to maintain coherence and determination in the team, now finds himself faced with an enormous challenge: finding an effective solution with such a full infirmary department.
The management, aware of the seriousness of the situation, has decided to suspend judgment on the project and Sarri's work. The future of the team will depend on how Sarri and his team manage to manage this crisis and find a way to return to form as quickly as possible. Next week will be crucial to understand if the Dea will be able to overcome this difficult phase and resume its run in Serie A.
