Nicolo Zaniolo reflected on his four-and-a-half-year period with Roma, thanking them following his move to Galatasaray.
The 23-year-old Italian forward officially joined the Turkish outfit on Wednesday, putting pen to paper on a four-and-a-half-year contract with the Istanbul club.
Zaniolo will be hoping to relaunch his career with Galatasaray following a miserable end to his time with Roma, which saw him booed on the pitch and confronted by fans outside his home in the capital.
The new Galatasaray forward posted a video on Instagram showing various memories of his time with Roma, writing a poignant goodbye to the club.
“I came to you who welcomed me as if I were at home. You made me grow, you gave me a chance that I tried to take with all my heart, always honouring the history you represent, fighting for your colours, sweating for the shirt every time I wore it.
“This journey is made up of unique emotions that I will treasure forever, like that May 25 last year, that goal, that cup…. all ours. So much has been said, too much, but now that we’ve said goodbye, I want to say one thing to you… It was an honour. Eternally grateful.”
