Atalanta star Alejandro "Papu" Gomez has once again been left out of his team's matchday squad as a January sale appears to draw closer.
Manager Gian Piero Gasperini left the Argentine out of his squad for Wednesday's league match against Bologna, the second consecutive game in which Gomez was not even on the bench for his team.
Gomez also missed out on Sunday's win over Roma, as a damaged relationship between player and manager appears no closer to being repaired.
