Muriel will wear the no.9 shirt. "I am here to help a team that has been improving over the last few years", the Colombian said. "President Percassi and Mr. Gasperini has given me enthusiasm and that was crucial for me. Duvan is in love with Bergamo, he always speaks to me about the team, we are close friends. I want to play with strong players and it didn't take long to convince me".
