Roma land Gonalons for €5m
Maxime Gonalons is eagerly anticipating a "new adventure" after completing a move to Roma.
Roma have completed a €5million move for Lyon midfielder Maxime Gonalons.
The 28-year-old has signed a four-year deal with Eusebio Di Francesco's side, bringing an end to his long association with Lyon, where he came through the youth ranks and made his first-team debut in 2009.
"After speaking with [sporting director] Monchi and the coach about their ambitions, I did not hesitate for a moment," said Gonalons, who has won seven France caps.
"For this reason there were no issues and everything was agreed very quickly.
"I cannot wait for this new adventure."
