Giacomo Raspadori
ATA
Suffers injury relapse
Raspadori has been diagnosed with a low-grade right biceps femoris strain, Atalanta announced.
Analysis: Raspadori sustained the same type of injury he had picked up at the beginning of the previous international break, although he was able to recover quickly. He'll miss multiple matches this time around. He has been playing second banana to Jonathan Rowe and Eljif Elmas lately.
Subs off midweek
Raspadori left Thursday's UEFA Conference League match in the first half due to a possible thigh injury, La Gazzetta dello Sport reported.
Analysis: Raspadori drew a fairly rare start amid some rotation, provided an assist and got hurt while converting a PK. He'll need to be assessed before Sunday's away game versus Milan, but he hasn't been a regular in league play as of late.
DNP in Venezia match
Raspadori (thigh) didn't get minutes in Monday's 3-1 win over Venezia.
Analysis: Raspadori recovered quickly from a thigh injury but wasn't rushed back, as Atalanta quickly took control of the tilt. He'll have to seize his next opportunities to resume being a regular, as he's tumbled down the pecking order after two early starts.
Bench option against Venezia
Raspadori (thigh) is available for Monday's clash with Venezia.
Analysis: Raspadori is good to go after dealing with a minor thigh injury and will deputize Charles De Ketelaere, Elijf Elmas and Jonathan Rowe, as Atalanta are going with a slightly different scheme featuring more attackers in this one.
Could make it for Venezia tilt
Raspadori (thigh) trained fully for the first time since injuring his thigh, Tuttomercatoweb reported.
Analysis: Raspadori has a solid shot at being an option despite straining a muscle at the beginning of the international break. He has had a small role in the last two matches following the arrival of Jonathan Rowe, posting three shots (zero on target), three key passes and one cross (one accurate) in two cameos.
Sidelined for a bit
Raspadori will likely miss a couple of weeks due to a low-grade right biceps femoris strain, Sky Italy reported.
Analysis: Raspadori could sit out one or two matches after Serie A resumes unless he speeds up his recovery. He has been backing up Jonathan Rowe on the left wing lately. Nicola Zalewski can also handle the position.
Sent back by Italy
Raspadori has withdrawn from international duties due to a thigh problem, Mediaset reported.
Analysis: Raspadori bowed out at halftime in the most recent Nations League tilt, and the ensuing tests confirmed that he wouldn't have been available to play in the upcoming two. He'll undergo further exams in Bergamo to ascertain whether the problem is serious enough to sideline him for October 12's game versus Venezia.
Bags early opener Sunday
Raspadori scored one goal to go with three shots (one on goal) and one cross (zero accurate) in Sunday's 2-1 win against Sassuolo.
Analysis: Raspadori opened his scoring tab for the 2026-27 season early Sunday, bagging a goal in the 6th minute of a Gianluca Gaetano assist. It was one of three shots he took in the match but was the only one he put on target. It's a strong way to start the season, especially coming off a disappointing campaign last season where he scored just three league goals across 25 combined appearances for Atletico Madrid and Atalanta.
Notches four key passes in Fiorentina tilt
Raspadori created four scoring chances and generated three shots (zero on goal), two crosses (one accurate) and two corners in Friday's 1-1 draw against Fiorentina.
Analysis: Raspadori was picked to lead the attack over Nikola Krstovic and Gianluca Scamacca, coming close to scoring a couple of times despite having no attempts on goal. He paced his team in key passes and matched his season in such a stat. He has created at least one chance in the last four contests, piling up eight, and has fired at least one shot in his final five appearances, totaling 12 (four on target). He's been solid when healthy since joining in January, recording three goals, one assist, 28 attempts (11 on target) and 18 chances created in 14 fixtures (seven starts).
Nets in Milan meeting
Raspadori scored one goal to go with three shots (one on target), one cross (zero accurate) and two corners in Sunday's 3-2 victory over AC Milan.
Analysis: Raspadori put his team up by three goals early in the second half with a tidy strike from up close, beating the goalie on the near post. It's his third goal since moving to Atalanta. He has registered multiple shots in three matches in a row, totaling eight (four on target) and posting three chances created, seven corners and two tackles (two won) during that stretch.
Fizzy outing in Cagliari contest
Raspadori registered two shots (two on goal), five crosses (zero accurate) and five corners and drew one foul in Monday's 3-2 defeat against Cagliari.
Analysis: Raspadori filled the stat sheet in his second consecutive start over Nicola Zalewski, but he lacked touch and wasn't part of the two goals. He has sent in multiple crosses in four straight fixtures, totaling 20 (four accurate), scoring once and registering eight shots (four on target), three chances created and 14 corners during that stretch.
