Rubin Kazan announce Marko Livaja signing

Rubin Kazan have announced on their official website that they have completed the signing of Croatian forward Marko Livaja from Atalanta.

The Russian giants revealed the youngster had signed a five-year contract with the club and he is set to join at the start of the summer transfer window.

Seeing as how the forward had just over a year left on his deal with Atalanta, it is believed he was signed on a cut-price deal.

Rubin officials clearly decided to take the gamble with the player who has shown a great deal of potential, but also caused a fair share of problems during his time at Cesena, Inter Milan and Atalanta.

Livaja joined Inter Milan from Hajduk Split in 2011, but he left the club for Atalanta after making just six league appearances for the Nerazzurri.

He has since struggled to prove his worth in Bergamo, scoring mere four goals in thirty one league outings for Orobici.
