Jurić's press conference ahead of Parma v Atalanta
The Nerazzurri's coach sets the tone ahead of the first Serie A outing
Ivan Jurić spoke to the media on the eve of Parma v Atalanta, the 2025/26 Serie A Enilive MD2 game kicking off tomorrow, Saturday 30 August, at 18:30 CEST at the Ennio Tardini stadium in Parma: "We are up against a very tough side, led by a great coach with clear ideas. They know how to make the most of set pieces and press with intensity, so it will undoubtedly be a challenging game."
He then turned to the UEFA Champions League draw and the teams the Nerazzurri will be facing in the 2025/26 League Phase: "Every opponent is tough — there are no weak teams. Union Saint-Gilloise are the Belgian champions, while Slavia Prague play really well. Even those who might seem easier to face on paper are actually strong teams. Facing Paris Saint-Germain and Chelsea will be special, but these are the games that help you grow."
