“Having shown his qualities in the Luzern youth sector, scoring nine goals in 16 games for the Under-21s, he was elevated to the first team.
“He started in the Swiss Super League with Luzern at the age of 19, and in the two-and-a-half seasons since he has collected 55 appearances in the Swiss top flight, scoring twice and providing seven assists.
“He has already experienced the Europa League and Mapei Stadium in Reggio Emilia – where Atalanta will play their home games in European competition – last season when facing Sassuolo in the third qualifying round, playing both games from the first to last minute.
