Sarri invites Romagnoli to leave Lazio for Atalanta amid unrest
Summary

Atalanta manager Maurizio Sarri has reportedly reached out to defender Alessio Romagnoli, encouraging him to join the club as he seeks a way out of Lazio.

Atalanta is prepared to present Romagnoli with a potential escape plan, although he has expressed a desire to conclude his career in Italy with Lazio. A response from Romagnoli is anticipated in the coming days as negotiations progress.
