Juric’s Position to be Reviewed After Next Two Fixtures
The Atalanta hierarchy has decided to monitor developments over the course of the next two matches before making a potential decision regarding Juric’s position. The Croatian manager was appointed in the summer, taking over from Gian Piero Gasperini. Juric’s previous season was marked by controversy, having been dismissed by Roma after only a few weeks. He then joined Southampton, with whom he was subsequently relegated and dismissed.
