Zaniolo ‘motivated’ to face his former club on Monday | OneFootball

Nicolo Zaniolo is reportedly looking forward to facing his former club for the first time on Monday when Roma and Atalanta are scheduled to meet.

As reported by Corriere dello Sport, this will be Zaniolo’s first time back at the Stadio Olimpico since January 12, 2023, with the Giallorossi colors on his back and a shower of whistles in the background, the first stage of a tormented push and pull.

Then the insistent transfer rumors, finally the departure for Turkey, Aston Villa, and finally Bergamo: physical problems and discomforts have slowed his insertion into Gian Piero Gasperini’s mechanisms, but who knows if that goal against Stuttgart can turn everything around.

Zaniolo is unlikely to start on Monday but is said to be motivated for the match in his former stadium.
