(Reuters) -Ivan Juric has been appointed Atalanta manager to replace Gian Piero Gasperini, the Serie A club said on Friday, with the Croatian signing a two-year deal just two months after he left Southampton following their Premier League relegation.

Atalanta, given the difficult task of replacing Gasperini who left the Bergamo side on Saturday after nine years in which he oversaw the most successful period in the club's history, have chosen his former pupil and assistant Juric.
