Former Real Zaragoza midfielder Francelino Matuzalem is excited about his £5 million move to Lazio.
"I'll be playing for a great club in a wonderful city in front of splendid fans. It gives me great pleasure to make this move.
"I spoke to the Zaragoza President and we adjusted the current contract situation. Now I have to talk to Lazio President Claudio Lotito and hope to start pre-season training this weekend."
Matuzalem is keen to experience a Rome derby and added: "I did know Amantino Mancini from our time together in the Brazilian Under-20 side, but he has moved to Inter. Of the current squad I am friends with Juan and it will be very exciting to play in a Rome derby. Winning it would be even better."
