Atalanta have pulled off a shock move, not so much by firing Angelo Gregucci, but by hiring Antonio Conte in his place.
The knives were out for Gregucci after he suffered his fourth straight defeat since taking over from Gigi Del Neri this summer.
All the money was on either Daniele Arrigoni or Mario Beretta replacing him, but Atalanta have surprised everybody by luring Conte.
The man who led Bari back to the top flight earlier this summer was linked with the Juventus job when Claudio Ranieri got the boot.
He lost out to Ciro Ferrara and then resigned from his position with Bari.
Conte earned quite a name for himself while at the helm of the Galletti, playing thrilling attacking football, often lining his team up in a 4-2-4.
However, he is unproven at this level, but Bergamo is very excited about his appointment.
