Atalanta v Juventus for the "Trofeo Achille e Cesare Bortolotti"
Match scheduled for August 16 at 20:45 CEST at the Bergamo Stadium
Marking coach Jurić Nerazzurri's home debut in front of the home crowd, the final tune-up before the 2025/26 Serie A Enilive kickoff will see Atalanta take on Juventus in the 26th edition of the "Trofeo Achille e Cesare Bortolotti" in what promises to be more than just a high-calibre friendly.
Kickoff at 20:45 CEST, the match will be a crucial "dress rehearsal" ahead of the Serie A opener, which will see
De Roon and teammates play hosts to Pisa, scheduled for Sunday, August 24.
More than a mere contention, the evening will serve as a heartfelt tribute to the legacy of two iconic figures in the Club's history, Achille and Cesare Bortolotti, in what will be the 26th edition of the trophy dedicated to two iconic and dearly remembered Presidents in Atalanta's history. As tradition dictates, after the final whistle, the customary "Valter Polini" and "Mario Bresciani" awards will be conferred upon, respectively, the most sportsmanlike player and the standout performer of the game.
After six editions featuring international sides, this year the fixture returns to an all-Italian encounter, with Juventus stepping in as the opponent after their latest appearance back in May 1992, when they faced Atalanta and Borussia Dortmund in the three-team round-robin tournament held in memory of the late Cesare Bortolotti.
