Atalanta director Luca Percassi assures transfer rumours over Luis Muriel are futile. ‘He’s an extraordinary talent and we’re holding on tight.’
The Colombia international is in the form of his life, scoring 22 goals with nine assists in 38 competitive matches for La Dea so far this season.
It saw him linked with the likes of Inter, Juventus and Chelsea, but turning 30 next week, he’s very much at home in Bergamo.
