BERGAMO - Never underestimate your opponent, but respect them to face them with the right attitude and focus. Maurizio Sarri, in his pre-match press conference on the eve of the first leg of the Conference League playoffs, had clear ideas about the match against Israeli side Hapoel Tel Aviv. "We weren't lucky with the draw because Hapoel has great quality, and I expect a tough match. I hope Atalanta enters the pitch with the right determination, keeping in mind that the match must be managed over 180 minutes. The feeling is that the team is gradually improving, and I hope there's plenty of room for improvement."

BERGAMO - In the match for the 2026 Bortolotti Trophy, Sarri was looking for confirmation after his strong performance in Gelsenkirchen, but he had to wait until the start of the second half to see his team break the deadlock and consistently build forward play. This was after a first half in which the attacking side lacked and the build-up play seemed too slow to offer any real opportunities. The match was decided by Zalewski's goal thirty seconds into the second half. In the second half, Atalanta, even considering their rotations, were more successful in implementing their…

BERGAMO - Gianluca Gaetano, who came through Napoli's youth ranks and joined Atalanta, is probably the player who best represents the technical and tactical changes introduced by Maurizio Sarri's arrival at the Bergamo club. He is the first signing of the new era, and the cornerstone of the entire reorganization of the team, which has returned to playing with a back four. Promoted to the top midfield, he makes no secret of his sense of opportunity and responsibility. His presentation was accompanied by sporting director Cristiano Giuntoli, who set the tone for the Atalanta project, which focuses on…

GELSENKIRCHEN - Atalanta emerged victorious from their second international test match at the Veltins Arena in Gelsenkirchen, before 55,000 spectators who had gathered to celebrate Schalke 04's return to the Bundesliga after three years in the German second division. The 3-0 victory, secured in the first half by goals from Scamacca and Samardzic, capped by a late Nikola Krstovic goal, confirmed the progress of Sarri's 4-3-3 formation. Atalanta fielded Charles De Ketelaere for the first time in an attacking trio alongside Scamacca and Raspadori. In front of Carnesecchi, Kossounou and Scalvini played as central defenders, Bellanova and Ahanor as wingers, and Gaetano was the pivotal midfielder.

Maurizio Sarri's Atalanta played their first match at the New Balance Arena, 48 hours after their match against Feyenoord in Rotterdam. The fans in the Curva Nord (certified attendance: 6,700) welcomed them to the training session, which began at 7:00 PM with a rondo between two groups of 11 outfield players.

In their European debut of the season, Atalanta took to the field in Rotterdam, in front of 47,500 spectators but without fans by order of the local authorities. The prize was the inaugural "De Kuip Cup," which Feyenoord won 2-1. Atalanta approached their first international match of the season with a new format, featuring two 45-minute halves and a further 30-minute period of extra time, regardless of the score at the end of the first 90 minutes. It was a very productive test match, as they faced a team of...

Atalanta chose to face a newly promoted Serie B team for their second test match at the Bortolotti Center in Zingonia. The result was a comeback victory over Arezzo, who had defeated Allegri's Napoli in their summer opener, and confirmed their already well-oiled, fast-paced play. The Tuscan team, coached by Cristian Bucchi, built a two-goal lead in the first six minutes, containing Atalanta's sluggish play for the remainder of the first half. In the second half, the team found dynamism, raised the tempo and center of gravity, and managed to...

No sooner said than done. José Ederson, having fallen through a move to Manchester United due to appeals for the outcome of his second medical checks, has returned to Atalanta with renewed enthusiasm, making himself available to Maurizio Sarri five days early. He had expressed his desire to speed up the transfer process to Sarri himself, who had mentioned it in his presentation press conference. And the Brazilian midfielder's attitude pleased both the club and the coach. A clear demonstration of his love for the team that nurtured him, with whom he extended his contract until June 30, 2031, and his desire to carve out a role for himself...

Ederson ha prolungato il contratto che lo lega all’Atalanta

Ederson has extended his contract with Atalanta.

The warning signs were already there. After Manchester United's about-face, José Ederson's fate was never in the balance between staying at Atalanta or leaving, so great is the club's appreciation for the Brazilian midfielder's qualities as a player and a coach. Sarri himself went out of his way to state that Ederson wouldn't use up his entire post-World Cup holiday to rush through the process of finalizing his Atalanta contract extension. His contract was set to expire on June 30, 2027. Ederson, who already spent four years with the Nerazzurri in Bergamo,…

With the arrival of Maurizio Sarri, Atalanta's tactical philosophy has changed after a decade. The new coach's ambition is to build a strong and determined team. But there will be a lot of work to do to overcome the predictable initial difficulties. While awaiting the return of the players returning from the World Cup, Sarri is coaching 34 players, including a group of young players born in 2007, 2008, and 2009, four of whom he sees already fit to play in Serie A, while he awaits the return of the players returning from the World Cup. In his presentation press conference, alongside sporting director Cristiano Giuntoli, the new…
