Atalanta coach Gian Piero Gasperini insist Papu Gomez is as good as any player in Serie A.

Gomez has scored four goals in three games this season.

“Papu is a great champion, he has reached an incredible value," Gasperini said at a press conference. “He could play in any team in Europe.

“He could play for Inter or Juve too. This year he can also play in the middle and give us a hand even in defence.

“But he's best when he attacks."
