It’s 17th October 1907 when five guys, all in their twenties, gather around the table of the Correggi restaurant to give birth to a new sporting club. That’s when one of the most ancient clubs of Italy was founded, that’s when Atalanta Bergamasca Calcio was born. Since that moment Atalanta, which take their name from a Greek mythological heroine known for her speed, inextricably connect with the city of Bergamo, which they represent at Italian and international level. The Nerazzurri club are also called “Regina delle Provinciali” (queen of the provincial clubs), as they are the team with the highest number of Serie A appearances amongst clubs not based in a regional capital, achievement to which we must add the prestigious Coppa Italia win in the 1962/1963 season. One of the best youth academies in Europe since ever, they also boast three leagues and a Primavera Supercup in their palmares. Atalanta’s appeal is growing year by year also at international level. In the last seasons, under the presidency of Antonio Percassi and the coaching of Gian Piero Gasperini, Atalanta wrote new pages of their history, getting back to performing on international stages, until reaching their first historic UEFA Champions League participation.
