C'è un bel pezzo ieri su The Athletic che parla proprio di Percassi e di come Pagliuca abbia praticamente iniettato capitale lasciando la gestione reale a lui e famiglia.

Questo è uno stralcio piccolo ma indicativo
“A big reason to do the investment is you really want to pick (a) fantastic management team and partners, so it made sense to do the deal because the Percassis were incredible operators and really shared the same kind of philosophy that we had about trying to win and doing it sustainably,” Pagliuca says, “because if you don’t do it in a sustainable way, you see many of these clubs fall by the wayside.”
Udinese, for instance, have seen platforms such as Wyscout blunt their edge in scouting and Red Bull’s multi-club network eclipse what they tried to do with Watford in England and Spain’s Granada as sister teams. They were never able to extend two-to-three-year cycles of punching above their weight into the prolonged seven/eight-year stretch Atalanta are now on.
