AS Roma have completed the signing
of Siena striker Mattia Destro, one of the most sought-after
players in Serie A.
Juventus, AC Milan and former owners Inter Milan were among
the clubs courting the 21-year-old, who netted 12 league goals
for Siena last term and just missed out on a berth in Italy's
Euro 2012 squad.
Underachievers Roma, who have also recruited American
Michael Bradley and Brazilian Dodo for new coach Zdenek Zeman
over the close-season, said in a statement on Monday that they
had signed Destro in a complicated deal involving previous
co-owners Genoa.
