Former Fiorentina fullback Federico Balzaretti is delighted with his move to Palermo.
"I am a player who has always focused on giving my all and I hope to develop a good relationship with my new fans as their affection is very important to me.
"I'm hoping to win the supporters over straight away and their warmth can spur me on.
"I feel ready to play even though I haven't played an official game since the end of November."
