Atalanta CEO Luca Percassi said he ‘would sign’ for the Orobici to finish among the seven best in Serie A. ‘There are seven places for Europe and getting there would be like winning a trophy’.
La Dea are currently appearing in the Champions League for the third consecutive times and have qualified from the group stage in the last two attempts.
Atalanta are drawn Manchester United, Young Boys and Villarreal in the prestigious competition this term and face a tough path to the knockout stages.
After two seasons among the top four in Italy, La Dea are eighth in the League after seven games and CEO Percassi aims for top seven in 2021-22.
“There are seven places for Europe and getting there would be like winning a trophy,” he told L’Eco di Bergamo. “The umpteenth of this cycle.
“I sign immediately, because every European tournament leads to the growth of our entire movement.
“And because I don’t lose sight of reality: we are Atalanta, we must never lose our measure.”
