Atalanta will travel to Lecce for the first round of Serie A, and in the pre-match squad announcement, both Koopmeiners and Lookman were absent. Both players have been embroiled in transfer rumors recently.
Sky Italia reports that Lookman requested not to participate in this match. He said he has received an offer from Paris Saint-Germain, but Atalanta seems to have yet to receive any related information.
The Europa League defending champions are now facing a crisis. Several players are injured, and Koopmeiners and Lookman, both key players last season, are determined to leave. Gasperini may face the daunting challenge of having no one available in the forward line.
