Muriel was last night crowned as the best young player in Serie A, along with Milan sensation Stephan El Shaarawy, at the Gran Gala del Calcio.
Udinese teammate Antonio Di Natale, speaking at the ceremony, said: “Muriel will be a top player within two years.”
Muriel, who has now recovered from a hip injury, has scored four goals in eight Serie A games so far this season.
