History and description
Stadio Atleti Azzurri d’Italia officially ⚽️ opened on 23
December 1928 with a match between Atalanta and Triestina. It originally went by the
name of Stadio ⚽️ Mario Brumana and could hold 12,000 spectators.
Over the years, Stadio
Atleti Azzurri d’Italia got gradually expanded with the addition of ⚽️ both curves and a
roof over the main stand. The stadium initially had a running track circling the pitch,
but ⚽️ makeshift stands have been placed over it.
The stadium has also been the home of
AlbinoLeffe since they promoted to Serie ⚽️ B in 2003 and their traditional home in nearby
Albino could not meet league standards. They have kept playing at ⚽️ the stadium despite
relegating again in 2012.
Stadio Atleti Azzurri d’Italia has aged significantly over
the years and lacks the many ⚽️ comforts of modern stadiums. In the last decade, Atalanta
have therefore investigated several options to build a new modern home. ⚽️ Initially they
focused on building an entirely new stadium on the outskirts of the city, however these
never materialised in ⚽️ anything concrete.
In 2024, Atalanta bought Stadio Atleti Azzurri
d’Italia from the city of Bergamo and are now planning to extensively ⚽️ redevelop the
stadium. The plans include building two new covered curves and refurbish the other
stands, resulting in a capacity ⚽️ of 24,000 seats. They hope to complete works in
2024.
