New Atalanta coach Angelo Gregucci will focus on youth next season.
"I thank the club for this chance," said Gregucci. "The contract is only for one year, but that doesn't matter, as we can talk about it later on.
"This truly is a great opportunity for me. I fully agree with Atalanta's project, as the primary objective is getting the best out of the young players."
On the sale of Sergio Floccari to Genoa, Gregucci insisted: "I don't think the squad has been weakened by his departure and the club is already working on the transfer market to find a replacement."
