Sarri: "Atalanta Feel Like a Family, I'm here to begin an important journey"
"The stadium and the fans can be a massive driving force"
Head Coach Maurizio Sarri was officially unveiled at a press conference held in the Mino Favini conference room at the New Balance Academy.
Welcoming the new Nerazzurri Head Coach was Sporting Director Cristiano Giuntoli, joined by President Antonio Percassi, Co-Chairman Stephen Pagliuca, CEO Luca Percassi and the Club's senior management.
"First of all, I would like to thank everyone at the Club for being here today," were Head Coach Sarri's opening words. "One of the reasons I'm here is the determination with which they pursued me, as well as the respect I have for this family and this Club. It's a respect that goes back a long way. What they have built over the years has always impressed me, as have the stadium, the atmosphere surrounding the Club and the feeling that this is an organisation founded on hard work. Atalanta is a family, and I'm here to embark on an important journey. The stadium and our supporters can give us a huge boost".
