The Wags of Atalanta Bergamasca Calcio gathered for a lunch among friends. Paola Di Benedetto, a model and TV host now fully part of the Nerazzurri world after her marriage to Raoul Bellanova, posted a story on Instagram. The picture showed three plates of pasta and a red heart, tagging Gemma Pinelli, partner of Giorgio Scalvini, and Valentina De Flaviis, wife of goalkeeper Marco Carnesecchi.

What happened?

While Maurizio Sarri's team sweats through double training sessions at the Bortolotti Center in Zingonia for summer preparation, their partners are building bonds. Paola Di Benedetto shared the relaxed moment, showing a tight-knit group. It's more than just lunch: it's proof the atmosphere off the pitch is calm.

Why it matters for Atalanta Bergamasca Calcio

A united Wags group can make a difference over a long season. Family serenity helps players focus. Scalvini, Carnesecchi and Bellanova know that certain victories are also built at the table. Atalanta Bergamasca Calcio always relies on a family environment, and these friendships strengthen it.

What comes next?

Summer training continues. The players keep working at Zingonia. The Wags, meanwhile, have already planned more get-togethers. The group looks set to grow, away from the spotlight but close to the club's heart. The season has just started, but morale is already high.
