Genoa have swooped for Ajax midfielder Evander Sno.

The former Celtic midfielder joins Genoa as a free agent after coming off contract at Ajax last week.

It was believed the 24-year-old was ready to retire when he suffered a heart attack during a game with the Ajax reserve side in September 2010.

However, Sno recovered quickly and made his comeback in a friendly just two months later, having been given an internal cardiac defibrillator as a precautionary measure.
