Atalanta friendly fixed for 16 August

The Juventus Men’s First Team will face Atalanta in their final summer friendly on Saturday, 16 August, just eight days before the Serie A opener at home to Parma. Kick-off in Bergamo will be at 20:45 CEST.

In Bergamo, the Bianconeri will do battle with the Nerazzurri for the 26th edition of the Achille and Cesare Bortolotti Trophy.

The fixture continues a summer schedule that sees Juventus return to action on 2 August against Reggiana at Vinovo, followed by a clash with Borussia Dortmund in Germany on 10 August, and a family friendly against Juventus Next Gen at the Allianz Stadium on 13 August.

This will not be Juventus’ first appearance in the Bortolotti Trophy. The Bianconeri featured in the competition back in 1992, when the format was a three-team mini-tournament involving Atalanta and Borussia Dortmund - the same German opponents they will face again this summer.
