Argentina defender Gabriel Heinze has become Roma's latest summer signing after agreeing a one-year deal.

The 33-year-old was officially presented by the Giallorossi on Saturday. Heinze said: "In previous years I have been fortunate to play at big clubs and now I again have an opportunity to play in another great squad like Roma, so I didn't waste much time in deciding to come. "It's a great honour to wear this shirt." Heinze joins the likes of Bojan Krkic, Jose Angel and coach Luis Enrique as new arrivals at Roma this summer.
