Atalanta Sign Sergej Levak on Free Transfer from AS Roma

Atalanta have strengthened their team by signing 19-year-old Sergej Levak, who joins after leaving AS Roma as a free agent.

WHAT HAPPENED?

Sergej Levak, a promising Croatian midfielder, has joined Atalanta after his contract with AS Roma ended. Levak initially joined Roma on loan, later signing permanently, but his contract expired this summer. Atalanta moved quickly to sign him for the new Serie A season. Known for his technical skill and poise on the ball, Levak hopes to make Atalanta’s first team as they prepare for a challenging season.

ATALANTA’S AMBITIONS FOR THE NEW SEASON

Atalanta finished 3rd in Serie A last season, qualifying for the Champions League. They were just a few points behind fourth-placed teams and aim to improve on last year’s performance, adding young talent like Levak to strengthen their squad. Manager Ivan Juric has a reputation for developing young players, and Levak could find opportunities to shine. Atalanta start the new Serie A season next week against newly-promoted Pisa, who got promoted from the Serie B last season. This match provides an early chance for new players to make an impact.

WHAT NEXT FOR LEVAK AND ATALANTA?

Levak faces tough competition for a midfield spot but hopes to impress in pre-season and early league matches. As Atalanta compete in both Serie A and Europe, the squad is expected to rotate, giving Levak chances to play. With Atalanta pursuing Champions League qualification and strong cup performances, Levak’s development could be a key storyline this season.
