Multiple sources confirm that Juric will join Atalanta, despite his difficulties at Southampton. The 49-year-old has experience managing Italian clubs, including Torino and Roma. He also worked with Atalanta's director Tony D’Amico at Hellas Verona, making him the preferred candidate for the vacant role.

Juric will take over at the Gewiss Stadium, where Atalanta will compete in the Champions League next season. His past experience in Italy and his new role at Atalanta may prove beneficial for the team. However, his previous struggles as a manager may raise concerns about his ability to lead the team to success.

Juric's new role at Atalanta follows former Southampton manager Russell Martin's decision to join Rangers. Martin's success at Rangers may be a positive sign for Juric, who will hope to bounce back from his struggles at Roma and find success at Atalanta.

Juric's experience and knowledge of Italian football may help him navigate the challenges of managing Atalanta. However, his past performance as a manager will be closely monitored, and his ability to lead the team to success will be a key factor in his success at the Gewiss Stadium.
