Having put our names in history by becoming World Champions for the first time in Atalanta's history last time out, we moved into 2026 in second place in Serie A and looking ahead to the knockout stages of the Champions Cup. The New Year got off to a bad start as we lost second striker... Continue Reading →
Last time out we secured Atalanta's first-ever Champions Cup triumph, alongside wrapping up a second consecutive Serie A success. Now we look to defend both titles, alongside making the club's first appearance in the Club World Cup.
We began the defence of Atalanta's first-ever Serie A title strongly, heading into 2025 in a fine vein of form with seven straight victories.
Having completed the first-ever Serie A title in Atalanta history in the 2023/24 campaign, the expectations were heightened for the next campaign.

Indeed, the board bumped our lowest possible expectation for the season from 'mid-table finish' up to 'top-half finish.' Another summer of outgoings preceded the campaign, with 26 players exiting the club either on permanent transfers, being released or on loan.... Continue Reading →
The summer of 2019 saw plenty of change in Bergamo, with more than 50 players departing the club and a decent handful coming in.
