“Was aware of symptoms”: Strong criticism of Atalanta coach

Gasperini, who last complained of corona symptoms during the second leg on March 10, had “endangered many people during his trip to Valencia,” the club wrote in a statement: “The coach was aware of the symptoms without taking any preventive measures to have taken hold.” The game in Valencia was played in front of empty stands as a precautionary measure on the instructions of the Spanish health authorities. At Valencia FC, ten players and 15 employees subsequently tested positive for the coronavirus. Gasperini had on Sunday in an interview with Journal of Sport reported that he was ill with COVID-19 and feared for his life. He has now recovered. He felt bad before and after the second leg of the round of 10 against Valencia on March 40th. “I didn't have a fever, but I felt exhausted, like it was XNUMX degrees,” said Gasperini. Atalanta's first leg against FC Valencia in Milan is considered a possible source of infection for the corona pandemic throughout Lombardy. Hundreds of Atalanta fans are said to have been infected in the stadium, which, according to experts, contributed to the spread of the virus in the Bergamo area.
