Gasperini had spent nine extraordinary years with Atalanta, where he won the Europa League with Ademola Lookman scoring a hat-trick in the 3-0 win against Bayer Leverkusen in the final.
Gasperini also helped Atalanta reach the Coppa Italia final, the Champions League quarter-final, and secured qualification for the Champions League five times in seven seasons.
Ranieri had been an instrumental part in the decision to hire Gasp, having decided to retire at the end of this season after steering the Giallorossi to fifth place in Serie A.
