‘Spinazzola won’t face Roma’

Atalanta Coach Gian Piero Gasperini confirms Juventus target Leonardo Spinazzola won’t be called-up to face Roma.

The Italian international is on loan with the Orobici from Juve, but the Bianconeri are keen to bring him back to Turin a year early.

“Spinazzola didn’t play in Valencia and with Venezia, and he won’t be there with Roma,” Gasperini confirmed in an interview with l’Eco di Bergamo.

“For me he’s an immovable starter, but this is an issue between Atalanta and Juventus, we’ll see how the transfer window ends.

“In June we said: ‘[Franck] Kessié will go but the others stay’. Instead we lost [Andrea] Conti.

“If Spinazzola goes now too, it may be that I make different tactical choices at the end of the transfer window.”
