According to Tuttosport, the management of the "Matriarchs" is impressed with Gian Piero Gasperini's work at Atalanta and is considering inviting the Italian specialist. Atlético president Enrique Serezo was offered to pay attention to Gasperini, given his style of football and impressive results, despite the small budget of the "goddess".

The 65-year-old coach could be rewarded for his successful work at Atalanta, leading them to their first-ever Champions League campaigns and making the club a regular contender for European competition in Serie A.
