Atalanta’s young defender Giorgio Scalvini has undergone successful surgery following a severe shoulder injury sustained during the match against Barcelona. This development marks the end of the season for the promising 21-year-old, dealing a significant blow to Gian Piero Gasperini’s squad.
The injury occurred during a challenge with Barcelona’s Koundé, forcing Scalvini off the pitch and ultimately leading to today’s surgical intervention. The operation, which took place on Wednesday, February 5, 2025, was reported to be a complete success.
This setback is particularly frustrating for both the player and the team, as Scalvini had only recently returned from a lengthy layoff due to an ACL rupture suffered last June. His comeback in November had been a boost for Atalanta, but this new injury has prematurely ended his campaign.
Atalanta’s CEO Luca Percassi had previously confirmed that both Scalvini and striker Gianluca Scamacca would be sidelined for the remainder of the season due to their respective injuries. This double blow significantly impacts Atalanta’s squad depth, especially considering the recent departure of Kossounou.
