On the eve of the Coppa Italia match against Genoa, the coach of the Nerazzurri, Raffaele Palladino, spoke to the local press for the usual pre-match press conference.

Atalanta, Palladino praises Lookman: “He is a great professional”

These are the words of Raffaele Palladino on the eve of the match against the Ligurians: “How important is the Coppa Italia for Atalanta? We are keen to do well in all three competitions. For Atalanta, the Coppa Italia is a major goal: we want to go all the way, considering also the three finals in the last nine years. It requires a lot of ambition and the team must approach this tournament with the right mentality. We must not underestimate the opponent. We are facing a team that is experiencing a good moment, also considering the change on the bench. It certainly requires concentration and attention in view of tomorrow: facing the game with the right mentality. I have just arrived here, but I have an extraordinary group in my hands, both technically and humanly.”

“I have tried to bring the right enthusiasm: everyone will have the chance to contribute. Now what matters is to continue working, but I am happy with how the guys are behaving. The priority is to give 100% for Atalanta. My staff and I have tried to bring our game, but above all the mentality of the club and that the team already had: the result of great work over the years. We are doing well, but there is still a lot of work to do: certainly, the path Atalanta has taken is the right one. I am fortunate to have a competitive squad, but also a very broad one in all departments: credit goes to the club for having built a strong team. Those who play must feel important as well as those on the bench: whoever is called upon must obviously give their best for Atalanta. Lookman? When I arrived, I spoke with everyone individually to establish a human relationship: players are always human beings. I spoke with Ademola, he is a great professional who is sacrificing for Atalanta: he and I want the same thing, to make the club great. The results are showing.”
