Udinese sign former Liverpool winger Riera
Udinese have confirmed the signing of former Spain international Albert Riera for next season on a free transfer.
The 31-year-old winger has been without a club since agreeing a mutual termination of his Galatasaray contract in January, and will officially become a Udinese player on July 1.
He began his career in his homeland with Mallorca and has gone on to play for Bordeaux, Espanyol, Manchester City, Liverpool and Olympiacos.
Riera moved to Galatasaray in 2011, but made just four league starts for the Turkish champions this season.
A lack of first-team opportunities under Roberto Mancini will have contributed to his desire to seek game time elsewhere.
Udinese currently sit 14th in Serie A, 10 points clear of the relegation zone.
