Man United ‘make contact’ over move for Serie A midfielder

The Atalanta player Ederson during the match Napoli-Atalanta at Diego Armando Maradona stadium on November 3, 2024 in Naples, Italy. Manchester United have reportedly made contact over a potential move for Atalanta midfielder Ederson. The Red Devils have bolstered their forward options with the £62.5m addition of Wolverhampton Wanderers, while they are also keen to recruit Brentford attacker Bryan Mbeumo. While they have been focusing on the final third, Man United will also be hoping to strengthen other areas of Ruben Amorim's squad as they look to avoid a repeat of the disappointing 2024-25 campaign. The midfield is one area that could see at least one new addition following the departure of Christian Eriksen as a free agent. According to Goal Brazil, Man United are eyeing Atalanta's Ede...

Rome derby draw, Atalanta revive Champions League hopes

ROME, ITALY - APRIL 13: Alessio Romagnoli of SS Lazio scoring goal 1-0 during the Serie A match between SS Lazio and AS Roma at Stadio Olimpico on April 13, 2025 in Rome, Italy. The always-tense Rome derby has ended 1-1, allowing Roma to extend their unbeaten run to 16 matches and enabling Lazio to stay one spot in front of their city rivals in the Serie A standings. Lifelong Lazio fan Alessio Romagnoli achieved a childhood dream in Sunday's match when he put Lazio ahead shortly after the break. Matias Soule equalised for Roma with a long-distance shot midway through the second half. Sixth-placed Lazio remained two points ahead of seventh-placed Roma, who haven't lost since December. The result ended the perfect run of five straight derby wins for Roma coach Claudio Ranieri, who is ex...

Thiago Motta Lands on Atalanta and Tottenham Radars

Thiago Motta head coach of Juventus FC looks on during the Serie A Enilive match between ACF Fiorentina and Juventus FC at Stadio Artemio Franchi on March 16, 2025 in Florence, Italy. Thiago Motta might be out of a job for a long time, as a couple of teams have reached out to him to test the waters ahead of the summer. Juventus are watching the situation with a keen eye. They’d save a decent buck if he rescinded his contract prematurely, TuttoSport informs. Otherwise, he and his staff will stay on the Bianconeri’s payroll for two more campaigns with a €15M cost. The ownership quickly intervened to offset the unexpected expense. He’s waiting for his next opportunity at his home in Cascais in Portugal. Despite what happened in Turin, Thiago Motta is set to have important suitors. Atalant...

Fiorentina 1-0 Atalanta: Kean confirms remarkable form

FLORENCE, ITALY - MARCH 30: Moise Kean of Fiorentina competes for the ball with Isak Hien of Atalanta during the Serie A match between Fiorentina and Atalanta at Stadio Artemio Franchi on March 30, 2025 in Florence, Italy. (Photo by Image Photo Agency/Getty Images) Moise Kean pounced on a defensive error to give Fiorentina a morale-boosting victory over Atalanta, as the race for Europe keeps getting tighter. The Viola were fresh off a 3-0 victory over Juventus, but Robin Gosens joined Andrea Colpani on the absentee list. La Dea saw their Scudetto hopes evaporate in defeat to Inter, but Mateo Retegui shook off a muscular problem to start, with Ederson suspended, Juan Cuadrado only fit for the bench, Stefan Posch, Odilon Kossounou, Giorgio Scalvini and Gianluca Scamacca injured.

Federico Gatti suddenly a doubt to face Atalanta due to muscle fatigue

Federico Gatti participates in the Champions League 2024-2025 match between Juventus and Benfica in Torino, Italy, on January 29, 2025. It seemingly hasn’t mattered what month it is during the 2024-25 season, dealing with injuries at the back has been a constant. Basically from September to the present day, there’s been somebody out injured and that almost certainly hasn’t been limited to one or two players. However, one Juve defender hasn’t officially been on the injury list so far this season: Federico Gatti, the Bianconeri’s clear-cut leader in minutes played in all competitions. Well, not on the injury list until this week. Gatti, who celebrated his 100th appearance as a Juventus player in Monday’s win over Hellas Verona, has been dealing with muscle fatigue and subsequently force...

Atalanta boss Piero Gasperini Inconsolable After Napoli Defeat

BERGAMO, ITALY - JANUARY 18: Gian Piero Gasperini, head coach of Atalanta BC disappointed ,during the Serie A match between Atalanta BC and SSC Napoli at Gewiss Stadium on January 18, 2025 in Bergamo, Italy. Atalanta slumped to a late 3-2 home defeat to Serie A pacesetters Napoli on Saturday evening, losing potentially crucial ground in the Scudetto race. Romelu Lukaku’s towering header in the 78th minute saw Antonio Conte’s side avenge a 3-0 defeat in November’s reverse fixture and steer seven points clear of third-placed La Dea. Despite becoming the first team to beat Napoli’s defense twice for the first time since their thumping win in Naples, Atalanta failed to capitalize on another scintillating attacking performance. As a result of a fourth consecutive winless league outing, Gian...

(Photo by Timothy Rogers/Getty Images) Atalanta missed the chance to move provisionally top of Serie A on Saturday after being held to a goalless draw at Udinese which left them two points behind league leaders Napoli. Gian Piero Gasperini's side would have moved above Napoli, who host Verona on Sunday, on goal difference with a win in Udine but were a long way from their brilliant best. "They were better than us, more intense than us. We struggled the whole first half and were lucky," said Gasperini to DAZN. "We were a bit better in the second half but in ...

A goal three minutes from time for Ademola Lookman has lifted Atalanta to the top of Serie A. Lookman scored in the dying stages to beat AC Milan 2-1 on Friday, a victory that secured Atalanta's ninth win in a row. It was a fitting gift to coach Gian Piero Gasperini, who was awarded the coach-of-the-month award earlier in the day for guiding his team to a perfect record in November. Charles De Ketelaere put the home side ahead with a towering header after 11 minutes, only for Milan to level 11 minutes later when Theo Hernández released Rafael Leão on the right wing and his inviting cross was...

Nigeria’s player-of-the-moment, Ademola Lookman, and his national teammate, Samuel Chukwueze will go head-to-head this evening in a highly anticipated Italian Serie A clash between Atalanta and AC Milan inside the Gewiss Stadium in Bergamo.

Atalanta Suffer Massive Injury Scare in Bologna Draw

Problems keep piling up for Atalanta at the start of the new campaign as Marco Brescianini faces a potentially lengthy spell on the sidelines. The former Frosinone midfielder picked up an injury during Saturday’s 1-1 draw against Bologna at Renato Dall’Ara. Brescianini tried to break the deadlock on the stroke of halftime when he latched on to Sead Kolasinac’s cut-back on the edge of the six-yard box. Despite a delightful first touch, the Atalanta star caught the turf as he was trying to pull the trigger, injuring himself in the process. The 24-year-old immediately asked for medical attention. However, he refused to leave the pitch despite being treated near the end-line. Moments later, he collapsed to the ground again and had to hobble off the field in pain, with Lazar Samardzic taking...

Serie A Preview: Atalanta vs Como – Team News, Line-ups & Prediction

Gewiss Stadium sets the stage for the first Serie A meeting between resurgent Atalanta and newly-promoted Como since May 2023. The opposing teams enter Monday’s showdown in Bergamo with contrasting spirits. Atalanta headed into September’s international break as a wracked ship on the back of back-to-back league defeats, including a 4-0 rout at the hands of defending champions Inter. However, renowned tactician Gian Piero Gasperini has used the two-week hiatus to steady the ship and bring La Dea back on the rails. Despite falling behind twice inside the opening 35 minutes of their home encounter against Fiorentina last weekend, Atalanta posted a confidence-boosting 3-2 victory, turning things around before halftime. Buoyed by an exceptional comeback against La Viola, the Europa League win...

Report: Juventus again raise their offer to Atalanta for Teun Koopmeiners

As the beginning of the 2024-25 season seems to fast approaching, it’s not exactly the same when it comes to Juventus’ final steps to sign Atalanta midfielder Teun Koopmeiners. Things have been at what feels like a crawl all summer, with a multitude of reasons — available money, Atalanta’s demands, a Koopmeiners replacement being secured — causing Juve’s No. 1 transfer target still not on the roster just a couple of days before the new year kicks off. Inching forward. Slowly but hopefully surely. That essentially translates to getting closer to and closer to Atalanta’s asking price for Koopmeiners, which looks like it’s about to be one of the most expensive deals Juventus will have ever made. According to Fabrizio Romano on Thursday, Juventus submitted their latest bid for Koopmeiner...
