The great warmth and affection of the fans provided the setting for Atalanta’s training session at the Gewiss Stadium in Bergamo. With the incessant support of a packed Curva Nord Pisani, coach Gasperini’s men played a series of small-sided games before the squad, President Antonio Percassi, CEO Luca Percassi and managers greeted and thanked the Atalanta fans a few days before the official start of the competitive season with the league opener away to Sampdoria.

Preparations will continue tomorrow, Wednesday 10 August, at the Centro Bortolotti with an afternoon training session that will be behind closed doors.
