Cesare Bovo is delighted to be back with Genoa.

The 28-year-old spent the 2007-08 campaign at the Stadio Ferraris before moving to Palermo. He's now back after three years in Sicily.

"It'll be a great sensation to put this shirt on again and to once more take to the field at Marassi," the centre-back said.

"It was easy for me to fit back into this healthy squad even if only two players are still here from my previous spell - Marco Rossi and Alessio Scarpi."
