Zapata joins the squad for Friday training, final session and presser on Saturday

The Sampdoria players followed a warm-up with technical and tactical drills in Friday’s workout ahead of the Atalanta game.

Marco Giampaolo welcomed back Duvan Zapata after his Colombia commitments but there was no Leonardo Capezzi, who trained separately as he looks to regain full fitness.

The squad will be back for another session in Bogliasco tomorrow morning (behind closed doors). The coach will then conduct his media conference at 13:00 (live updates on Twitter and highlights on Samp TV).
