The left winger joins for an undisclosed fee and the announcement of his transfer came on Wednesday.
Speaking during the presentation, Atalanta CEO Luca Percassi expressed his admiration:
"We’ve been monitoring him for quite some time, having watched him closely at youth level. He consistently stood out for his qualities on the pitch, but what impressed us even more was his maturity off the field — far beyond his age."
