“I’ll talk to the Coach and the club, so I hope to get started in training soon.”

The centre-back had been on the verge of signing for Napoli, but the move was abandoned at the last minute due to a row over image rights.

He spent last season on loan at Roma, but the club did not take up its option to make the move permanent.

This deal is believed to be worth in the region of €6m, signing a four-year contract.

Astori is expected to undergo a medical tomorrow, but tonight he’ll be in the stands for their friendly against Barcelona.
