Ilicic pulled out of a move to Sampdoria in favour of joining Atalanta, who finished an impressive fourth in Serie A last season.

His best campaign saw him score 13 times and produce five assists in 2015-16.
Last season he netted five goals and added a further four assists in 29 league outings as the Viola finished eighth.
