  /  autty

Duvan Zapata is full of praise for Atalanta teammate Rasmus Hojlund.

The Dane has been superb in his first season in Italy.

Zapata told La Gazzetta dello Sport: "Competition with Höjlund? I've always had competition. Just look when (Luis) Muriel always scored when I was out,.

"Now it's just a striker who reminds me a lot more of myself. I didn't know him and I didn't expect him to be that fast over the short distances.

"He shows that in training in particular."
