Atalanta History
New heights under Gasperini (2016–present)
Former Genoa manager Gian Piero Gasperini was appointed ahead of the 2016-17 season. Despite initial difficulties, the club’s results steadily improved throughout the season. Gasperini integrated players from the club’s youth sector and led the club to fourth in the league with 72 points, surpassing their previous records and qualifying for the 2017–18 UEFA Europa League after a 26-year absence from UEFA competitions.
In the Europa League, the club reached the round of 32, losing 4–3 on aggregate to Borussia Dortmund. In 2017-18, Atalanta finished seventh in the league, entering the qualifying rounds for the 2018-19 UEFA Europa League, although they were eliminated in a penalty shootout by Danish club Copenhagen.

Atalanta Home Stadium
Atalanta has played at its current stadium, the 21,747-seat Gewiss Stadium in the Borgo Santa Caterina neighborhood of Bergamo, since 1928. Prior to its opening, Atalanta played at various other grounds in Bergamo. Between its founding in 1907 and FIGC recognition in 1914, the club did not have an exclusive playing field and only played friendly matches in public spaces: Piazza d’Armi and Campo di Marte in Bergamo. In 1914, Atalanta’s first playing field was established on Via Maglio del Lotto, near the Bergamo-Milan railway.
Atalanta Kit
The first uniforms adopted by Atalanta after its founding featured thin black and white vertical stripes. These were Atalanta’s colors until 1920 when the club merged with local rival Bergamasca (who had blue and white jerseys) to compete in the Italian league.
Following the merger, the common color white was dropped, leaving black and blue (nerazzurri) as the colors of the newly formed Atalanta Bergamasca Calcio. In the first few years after this merger, the club’s kits featured black and blue quarters. Atalanta adopted its classic black and blue vertical stripes several years later.
