AS Roma have announced the signing of Manchester United midfielder Nemanja Matic.
Matic, who revealed in April that he would be leaving Old Trafford at the end of the season, is reunited with former United boss Jose Mourinho for a third time.
Roma said in a statement on their official website: “The club is delighted to confirm the signing of Nemanja Matic.
“Matic, 33, has put pen-to-paper on a one-year contract with the Giallorossi that runs until 30 June 2023.”
Matic, who spent five years at United after joining from Chelsea, added: “I am pleased and honoured to be joining this club and I cannot wait to start the new season with my team-mates.
“Roma is a big club, with amazing fans and a coach, Jose Mourinho, who is well known to everyone – making the decision to come here very straightforward.”
The Serbian will wear jersey number 21.
