Serbia defender Kolarov joins Roma
Veteran Manchester City defender Aleksandar Kolarov signed a three-year contract with the AS Roma for five million euros ($5.83 million), both football clubs have confirmed.
"The club is pleased to confirm the signing of Aleksandar Kolarov from English side Manchester City," Roma said in a statement on Saturday.
The Serbian figured in 165 appearances for the Manchester club since 2010, helping his side clinch the EPL title and English Football League (EFL) cup twice.
"I am extremely happy to be here, I will give 100 per cent and more for Roma. My objective is always the same: To win," Kolarov said.
Roma Director Monchi said Kolarov's experience will help the side to perform better. "Aleksandar is a player with vast experience who can contribute to the team, I want to thank him for the willingness he has shown in wanting to come to Roma."
