Rui Patricio has left Atalanta after terminating his contract with them on May 31. He has accepted an offer from Al-Ain, a team that will compete against Juventus in the Club World Cup. The Portuguese goalkeeper's departure from Atalanta comes as the team seeks to bolster their goalkeeping lineup, having also parted ways with Juan Musso, who was signed permanently by Atlético Madrid this summer. With Marco Carnesecchi as the current first-choice goalkeeper, Atalanta is actively looking for a backup goalkeeper to strengthen their squad under new coach Ivan Juric.
